4. Stay to the right when biking at all times except to pass. Announce to the person you are passing that you will be doing so, so that person will remain to the right hand side of the road. If you can not make the pass within 30 seconds then you must drop back to 3 bike lengths.
5. On the run. Stay to the right at all times except to pass. The path is not closed to public use so use extreme caution when running/making a pass.
