He’s still being selfish, Cyclists and mountain bikers yield to hikers, runners, and equestrians, Hikers and runners yield to equestrians. Downhill users yield to uphill users.
Yup. I slow, inform, and then overtake when safe. If they don’t seem to respond, I’ll wait to overtake. On a bike path, I can usually just overtake with 3’ (1m) space.
I mean if he seemed to think that that meant he was allowed to blast past people and they were obligated to move out of his way, then yeah that’d be pretty selfish… But when I’ve encountered him he’s been otherwise reasonably considerate. The music isn’t even really that loud, you probably only hear it from like 20-30m away.
