sscyco, you did what I think about doing quite often, but rarely ever do. You didn't do anything too outragious IMHO, as long as it's not done too often. Sometimes careless people need a good scare. Not unlike a car honking a horn at a bicyle riding on the wrong side of the street.

I don't think this reflects badly on cyclist. If I were one of these people my thoughts would probably be something like, "wow, this path has cyclists on it, maybe we shouldn't take the whole path". I'm pretty sure you weren't the only bike rider that day to try and pass these folks either. You're just the only one who posts on this forum who did.

Is this good cycling advocacy? No, but maybe you don't consider yourself an advocate. Is this human nature? Yes, thanks for being honest.
