Are people really that unaware, or perhaps that self involved? BTW, mother and daughter seem to have recovered. I saw them a few nights ago and both had a few bruises and scrapes that were still healing, but for the most part they were fine.
I'm afraid some people are just that arrogant and self involved

I think you handled the situation exceptionally well and I'm glad mother and daughter are doing fine.

Our cycling club strongly discourages members from using the local trails for training purposes. Maybe a note to some of the local cycling clubs could help in this situation. I'm sure any club or team would appreciate knowing their members are involved in this type of behaviour.
