Well, that is your crude way of behaving. Not the way good people are, thank goodness. You should just stay home with the dope on the bike!

Which side? Right side, left side, both sides, what ever?

In other parts of the country, like my previous home, Oregon, signs or pavement painting give users a clue.

In the Portland metro area, signs and pavement marking indicate that walkers, roller blades, and bikes stay to the right, and passing on the left on the multiuse paths. No golf carts in use there, but many, many bikes.

Our multiuse paths here simply aren't wide enough for carts, bikes, and walkers unless all stay to the right except when passing. And of course be mindful of oncoming users, regardless of their mode.

First off, pedestrians All ways! Have the right of way. Secondly, you can get arrested for bad language! Lastly. Civilized people should know better.

Default No excuse

Absolutely no excuse for using that kind of language, especially in front of children! So sorry that you were exposed to that!! I don't think she is indicative of the people who live in Fenney.

How do YOU know that, I don’t know what she said. Yes kids pick up things from other kids. Any language I wanted my children to learn from adults came from my cues. It should be the parents choice, not some random nut job.
We all have had to correct our kids at one time or another, usually you left the room and chuckled.
The lesson they learned was this is the language of anger. Not okay

There is no sense in using such language it is very childish and uncalled for and immoral

If I was on the bike, I would have slowed down until all traffic behind me cleared out and then passed the group, I do it all the time in my golf cart then I wave to them (not with one finger) as I pass.

Swearing and cursing are not acceptable in any group at any time. I used to cut up a storm but when I got out of my 20's I grew up. I don't think it was intentional but I don't usually get around people who do cus that much, I think in that way most people grow out of their childish ways and finally get out of the gutter.

I think common decency should be the rule of the day.

Stay well, stay polite. :

Ignore her, but you need to be in single file. The path is dangerous and you need to be extremely careful.

You ARE supposed to walk on the left side of the paths, walking against traffic, so you can see what’s coming toward you and get out of the way.

It is not only more polite but necessary for you to follow the path rules, walk facing into the traffic, that is carts and bikes. If you are walking with two or more people you should walk on the edge single file for your own safety and others, as well. Really would you walk with your grandchildren on the highway with your back to a truck and be shocked with they sound a fog horn??? Sorry to say you are completely wrong and put your grandchildren in danger. Walkers on the paths of course are entitled to be there but are not entitled...

Why are there so many angry, me first, get out of my face people here in TV. I had been told this is one of the friendliest places in Florida. I do love it here, but after 8 years of running into people with Diane’s kind of attitude I will never tell anyone this is a really friendly place.
