Steve - dip your toe in the Smoothness debate on the wiki, and recoil with
horror that people have devoted so much time to arguing over suitability
measures.
You can get a basic classification of physical attributes using the highway
tag (especially when you know that 99% of the use of "path" is for unpaved
footways). Something like bicycle:defacto probably allows you to record
informal access, if the bicycle (legal) tag is insufficient.
