Aren't bike paths usually asphalt too? They definitely are where I live.
Rail would work I guess, and mass transit is better than personal cars for any number of reasons, but we'd have to put in a lot of rail and abandon all the significant road infrastructure built up. I've mostly stanned buses in the past for that reason.
They can be anything, even asphalt. Concrete, gravel, dirt.
Bikes won't wear asphalt or anything else as fast as a high speed multi ton vehicle will though.
