  • Trail: Say nothing
  • Sidewalk: Say nothing

Safe cycling does not involve calling out to people or ringing a bell. It involves passing at a safe speed and with sufficient distance to avoid a collision even in the case of unexpected pedestrian movement. You can't blame the victim; pedestrians have right of way on trails. Constant bell-ringing and shouting does not increase safety, and ruins the peace of the trail for all users. Cyclists have to learn to ride responsibly, as this tragic case indicates.
