The same thing for when we are traveling on a street and come up to a bike. Doesn’t hurt anyone is we are “stuck” behind a bike for an extra 100 yards or so. Be safe.
And bad bikers too. My wife and I were walking on a walking path and a biker came up behind us, no ringing of the bell or any other warning. My wife unknowingly moved into his path and he struck her, knocking her down and him off his bike. He scrambled back up and biked away. No apology, no checking to see if she was all right.
