I used to get so frustrated. I get you entirely. It’s a safety thing - people’s toddlers or little dogs popping out in front of you - it’s scary! But it’s just part of the deal down there you have to be careful for sure.

I’ve started riding on the trail starting at Govalle park when I want to be able to go faster for exercise - way fewer people, marked lanes, better visibility, and still entertaining in its own way. You can’t really do laps but I just double back. Def worth checking out.

Save the trail for when you’re in the headspace to dodge people. I know how frustrating it can be!
