My hearing is not great either I have had some near misses as well. A footpath is a footpath, be polite if you shouldn’t be on it, it is the least you can do or you might get a stick shoved in the spokes….
While I quite agree about being polite but stick thing is a bit excessive and the situation might escalate where bicyclist may end up kicking field goal on your Chihuahua. 😉
