So I’m sorry in advance if this sounds harsh… or if you are one of the people that I’m about to complain about.
Just… damn mothers with their newborn babies on a trail that they know is frequented by cyclists (like, A LOT of them) and who refuse to get out of the way when they clearly see a cyclist coming straight towards them.
I don’t care if I’m interrupting your weekly support group meeting but this is an exercise workout for me, NOT a social call! And it’s so inconsiderate to deliberately take up every inch of the trail and force me into the gravel, even though I clearly warned you that I was trying to pass. Luckily for me, I have a mountain bike that can easily ride through gravel and debris like that, but most of the other cyclists I see in passing have road bikes with really thin tires and not a lot of traction. And not to mention, it's not safe for the babies either, as their stroller can easily be hit by a cyclist who's coming around the corner at a decent speed. (which is where these mothers were "camped" out)
I’m a very polite cyclist, I try to smile and greet everyone I encounter on the trail while I’m cycling and it’s just annoying to deal with people like that. The world does not revolve around you and your baby. Ugh.
/end rant.

lol, that's just the stupidity of the cyclist and not being aware of their surroundings. I have no sympathy for him.
