On the basis of map whatbyou see on the ground, thats a valid change. So long as it have bicycle=yes, and retains the NCN information, I don't think it matters that much. Oliver is right though, use by horses is essentially non existent. In visual terms, one might call it a track, which happens to be designated a bridleway. It does render differently (I know, don't tag for the renderer, but it seems reasonable for a renderer to infer the primary use from the highway tag) If you're on a road bike you'd usually want to avoid anything that shows up as a brideway .. Taking a bike down http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/52724259 was interesting :) Indeed, but it's a rather subjective approach. The usual rule is map what you see, not what you think, and in this case it is signed as a bridleway (and is also designated as such). A good rendering would take note of the surface tag when displaying cycle specific information.

I'll try to ride the length of the path some time checking what exactly is signposted. I wonder if cyclestreets assigns different costs to highway=bridleway vs highway=cycleway? It does show them differently in the resulting directions, at least.
