Wow, the imagery is really good. But in my area the imagery is about 3-4m east west and 3-4m north south out of alignment with Esri World Imagery (Clarity) Beta, which is what I've been using up until now (for thousands of buildings). https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/51.39886/-0.24940 Is

Hit Tony, It's already tagged as network=ncn and I think there seems pretty much universal agreement from commenters thus far that is not correct, because it isn't part of the National Cycle Network (which as you suggest is Sustrans' responsibility) and it is a mountain bike route. My main
