I haven't tried bike directions, but I'd imagine getting those right is tough in every state Apple doesn't have developers living in. So much of things like bike paths aren't mapped well in general. Even looking at OSM open source/crowdsourced data in my local area the bike maps miss obvious paths and include ones that are suboptimal and you still need a lot of local knowledge even when the data was already supposedly crowdsourced from local knowledge in the wiki fashion of OSM.
(Apple credits OSM and seems to have a direct pipeline from parts of OSM data maybe including features like Bike Paths, so I bring up OSM for the other reason that have you checked the OSM data looks accurate enough for your area? Correcting OSM data would be useful for our collective open data, and may indirectly make Apple Maps better in your personal situation.)
