How about this discussion... http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Routing_profiles
I tried some bike routing with pyroute and it seemed fairly happy choosing residential roads around town. The only real change for fragile bikes would be that it's difficult to tell whether "highway=cycleway" is a suitable route. Perhaps we could start by saying that highway=cycleway is only routeable by road bikes if it also contains surface=sealed or surface=tarmac.
