API bbox call:
​http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/map?bbox=5.912062832378969,52.15406712493493,6.025684779281623,52.25333567256637

manually downloading this area outside of JOSM and then loading .osm file seems to work.

Ticket #654 and ticket #666 have more examples of this bug.

I know that Bert (who reported #654), Gert (who reported #666) and me all are actively putting bicycle (and bus) routes into OSM, so that might be related to this problem.

Works here. Please reopen report if still existing.
