  • Trail: Slow down, On your left
  • Sidewalk: Slow down, On your left

I commuted by bike to Capitol Hill from Bethesda for two years. I was horrified at how rude cyclists were to pedestrians. Squeezing between groups of pedestrians going opposite directions was the worst I regularly saw. I would slow down and call slowly: Coming up on your left. I would say it slowly so as not to alarm.

As a daily jogger on the CCT I found that bells are so short in tone I could not tell if the sound came from a bike in front of me or behind me. I much preferred hearing voice warnings.
