Where does it say 'cycleway' is a "multi-use trail" What you described 
I'd tag as 'bridleway'

Tags have a hierarchical standing based on an increasing number of 
allowed transport modes:

footway>cycleway>bridleway>roads>motorways.

If there are cases where specific modes are (not) allowed  yes/no can be 
used.

All other attributes such as width, surface etc should be described in 
sub/adjective tags.
