subject just a little. Bike Paths vs people walking on bike paths. Recently while walking on a bike path near Alton Baker park, the path two bicyclist stopped and angrily informed me that the path was a "designated" bike path and I was not "allowed" to walk on bike paths! Can anyone clear this up for me? I heard the bicyclist coming and they rang a bell and I was already walking one the right edge of the path so I wasn't in their way.
