When are they going to lower the speed limit on streets so cars don't endanger cyclists?
Seriously though.
That trail looks wide enough that two people could walk side by side and a cyclist should be able to get through just fine. I am curious to see/hear more details about what really happened but if the cyclist was at fault then whatever consequences are appropriate I would support. We don't own the trails just like cars don't own the roads. We all have to get along with everyone. There have been many times that I have slowed down significantly on trails so as to not scare/hit/hurt pedestrians. I would expect the same if I were the one walking.
