Thanks for that perspective, Ian. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure that I've been on an MUP as anything but a cyclist. Back in the day when I was a runner (thus the fake knees today) I ran on the sidewalk, and today I don't really go for walks, so I've really only cycled on the paths, and haven't experienced walking with a bike coming by. Incidentally, there are 2 bells on the Riv order that should be arriving today, one for the Roadeo and one for the GFs Sam.
One other thing: When I was working in Louisville, there is a wonderful pedestrian/bike bridge (old converted RR) across the Ohio River. On nice days it is really, really busy. There were a couple of cyclists on one of those days, and the woman was incessantly ringing her bell. To me, that was the same as hollering "Coming through, clear a path for me!" I kind of thought that was rude, as if she felt by ringing the bell constantly it gave her the right of way. I rode across the bridge all of the time but on days like that, you just had to be very patient and really, really slow. There's way too much going on. But on the other hand, she was going slow, not ringing the bell and blowing by people, so I should give her a break too.
