Depending on how I feel different routes are good, for fast cycling
you can take one route and for normal transport you take another. It's
the same as taxi drivers take different routes depending on the
traffic.

FTR I think you all should map for child strollers  and add
ramp=yes/no tag to steps.. :-)
