This morning I was traveling along the path on 466 and saw a truck in/on the path and workers in the path spraying, two hoses AND two workers were in the path in front of me. I slowed down to be sure the truck wasn't blocking me ahead, an island obscured my complete view. I heard someone behind me yell GO! It was a group of bicyclists. They also yelled GO! when I stopped at the stop sign to turn into our village.

This has never happened to me. I try to be aware of people behind me but was concentrating at that time on the workers ahead of me.
