Sure, you could say if you have a cycleway with smoothness=horrible and tracktype=grade5 and foot=no and horse=no you have the same thing, but ther, Please keep paths that can only be used by MTB clearly different from >> cycleways that can be used non-MTB bicycles. >> > > I always assumed that's what the mtb:*=* tags were for, but smoothness= is > also suitable here since it even lists specific types of bicycles which > would be suitable http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:smoothness > Yes, the mtb: tags would in theory be able to convert als a cycleway in an MTB track - see above, but it is much simpler to keep the meaning that a cycleway is a cycleway and implies that you can use it with a normal bicycle.
