Hi Bill

I agree with Xan about the 'not officially cycleway'.
Thanks for coming and asking.

Be careful the proper tag is:
highway=footway

>From the wiki:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dfootway
Although where a route is primarily available for pedestrians but is
also usable by bicycles you can use highway=footway and bicycle=yes
