In the late 70s, I was riding around Grey Army Airfield near the clothing store and a Lieutenant did a dress right dress of of the sidewalk into my path. I went over the bars and managed a judo roll. I Got up and was straightening mp handlebars and the Lieutenant started screaming at me. There were a few other officers who saw what he did and sent him on his way. I avoid bicycle paths and public paths wen ever possible. Most of the time when I encounter others walking in the road on a paved shoulder I can use more of the lane to give them a wide birth. The few times I have been on a public path I adjust my speed accordingly. I have had the occasional conflicts over the years but fortunately not allot. I am not perfect but better at holding mp temper then some.
