[Tagging] Usefulness of bicycle=dismount on ways

[Philip Barnes]

A short section of pushing a bike along a footpath will often be preferential to only using a route where a bike can be ridden.

Just for the record, this is still the case in Oxford University Parks, they
had a few months trial of allowing people to push bikes, and shortly after
the trial was over they put up the current, explicit signs:
http://cycle.st/p53524 http://cycle.st/p53525 (text reads "NO CYCLES WHETHER
RIDDEN OR NOT")
The same is also true of Christ Church Meadows: http://cycle.st/p17860
http://cycle.st/p17861

Given people seem to be saying bicycle=no doesn't correspond to this
situation I'd be grateful for a tag, likely to be supported by routing
software etc, that does.
