Sorry you took this the wrong way.
The bike paths and trails are extremely crowded now with walkers because of the pandemic and I try very carefully to be considerate of them, especially the elderly and children and those with pets.. Even a bell scares or startles them. I often stop cold or just ride at a walkers pace in these conditions.
I dont always see fellow bikers do that.
I'm sorry if I offended you. I am very conscientious but If the path is wide open and I see someone doing 25 mph he's not being very nice either because walkers are on that same path. If the conditions are right and no pedestrians are in sight going by him ten feet away to the left was a safe prank ( I thought)Life is short and I won't be this fast in a few years
No one is perfect and I am the last one who wants to hurt someone.
That being said I will stop doing this okay.
