Cars hate them, because most drivers don't know how to handle 'em. And runners/walkers hate 'em, because they go too fast, expect us to yield to them and don't want to slow down for anything. There's an amazing path along the Chicago lakefront (26 miles of it) and I've seen my fair share of bikes hitting pedestrians and runners colliding with pedestrians. At least the local cyclists, runners and walkers acn all agree on one thing: we hate the tourists who don't pay attention! =)Nilsa @ SoMi Speakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08474642034399063234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25226414.post-65433144677987198152012-04-29T15:41:50.272-07:002012-04-29T15:41:50.272-07:00I'm glad you did the recap- I was wondering wh...I'm glad you did the recap- I was wondering what other people were gonna say. Our bike path does not have any info about what side bikes or runners should be on, but I wish it did... that would help so much!Laura Bollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05085128220551434785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25226414.post-90184166352064084532012-04-29T04:55:38.013-07:002012-04-29T04:55:38.013-07:00I'm so glad you posted this, it's all good...I'm so glad you posted this, it's all good information to have!!! I try to stay out of people's way. Even running on the sidewalk I go against traffic, what if a vehicle hops a sidewalk, then I can still jump out of the way!!!<br /><br />When I'm running with Jack we are the ones who move out of the way, and I hold him tight since I know he could easily trip someone up!<br /><br />Hope you are having a great weekend!!!Charis Faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01199090990410292913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25226414.post-35593409995296646272012-04-28T14:50:28.436-07:002012-04-28T14:50:28.436-07:00Haha I think my comment made me sound like a crazy...Haha I think my comment made me sound like a crazy person!

Other than that, it doesn't really say what to do!<br /><br />I've never been brave enough to do the shoulder/elbow nudge but I sure have wanted to. I actually get more annoyed with dogs on leashes than with people hogging the path. At least when it's people, I know what to do, they aren't going to jump out at me. But with a wandering dog on a long leash, I have no idea what way they are going to move and I have had to jump over leashes.Lisa from Lisa's Yarnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05335500882510597919noreply@blogger.com
