Bikers - use the BIKE path!

[Smiling JOe]

Wonder what happened to the signs with the rules for the bike path. I did not realize how smart it is to say a loud, passing on the left, when you're passing, until I read the sign years ago. Then I realized how important it is for safety. People don't hear you riding up right next to them. So please bikes say 'passing' when you're passing pedestrians that way people won't accidentally kill us both by stepping in front of you.

...and with every other person wearing an MP3 player while walking on the path, note that many will never hear you giving your notice.

It is my policy to say hello to all that I pass, before I reach them! That way they don't jump 3 feet in the air as I pass. I also use an old school rubber bubble horn, not too loud or obnoxious! But, the current trend in earplugs with music can be dangerous! People are so disconnected when they wear them!
I could complain about the car driver that almost wacked me yesterday by executing a U turn into the bike path, but why raise my blood pressure.

MP3ers are at their own risk ;-) ... a bike horn could be kinda funn OMG, a random thought
dang it wasn't random after all. I did not see jack s' post b4hand.
That really bites and then sometimes they just stop the vehicle and park on the path, special.Glad you weren't hit jack s.
