I've been battling this for years - just ask Robbie (I saw those eyes
roll, missy!) - sometimes a brief chat and explanation to the offending
driver can be quite effective. If the initial friendly explanation
doesn't have the desired effect, a cell phone in hand with a verbal
indication that you're calling someone to come and explain things
further will usually elicit some reaction. And go ahead and make that
call if you need to, a blocked bike lane/path is public hazard.
(255-2345 is the non-emergency police dispatch number).

there was certainly no excuse for the Two Men and a Truck truck that
was blocking the bike path by the garage entrance to the Fauerbach at
around 4:15. It could have backed up five feet and people could have
gotten by with relatively little inconvenience.

Perennial nuisance. Saw an example of this recently myself:

but at least I can forgive MGE, since
a. the ground was probably not frozen, and
b. the bucket arm only reaches so far.
I wasn't able to stick around to see whether they really needed to
be on the path.
