[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] eh. [b] I [/b]should be able to jog safely in a straightish line on that path without unpredictable toddlers veering left and tripping me. This really happened in 1997, near Taft bridge. Kid suddenly bolted left -exactly- as I was passing in a 100% not-self-absorbed fashion. I was super alert, saw them from way back, and I had given them wide berth, too, but it wasn't enough. I fell to the ground, and I collided with that little kid hard, too. Let's ask ourselves whether a very heavily used, multi-use trail is really the best place for unpredictable babies and toddlers to toddle. [/quote] No, on a multi-use trail you need to be able to stop before you injure a child, an old person, or someone who is suddenly taken ill. If you need to run or ride so fast that you can't stop you need to find a dedicated track. [/quote]
