Parallel paths
(sh.itjust.works)
Desire paths Desire paths can be paths created as a consequence of erosion caused by human or animal foot-fall or traffic. The paths usually represent the shortest or most easily navigated routes between origins and destinations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desire_path
Totally fair, but also crappy for bikes and it's good for staying away from anyone walking
Mountain biker here, a primarily bike path would have a deeper rut in it cause of the way tyres sink into the earth. Also, no tyres tracks visible. Probably would have some bikers, but not its main purpose, I'd guess.
Excellent I appreciate the expertise - and that totally makes sense.
