MUPs are by far the greater problem but it's not just the pedestrians. It the whole mix of different speeds and uses of the MUP -- along with the plugged ears.
I generally don't have many problems on the road but Davis has a very high number of runners and cyclists per capita and every once in a while you get faced with something odd. I've been mulling over where and when I suddenly decided that I just had to hold my line and I think it was probably one too many instances of two abreast baby carriages with the yakking oblivious moms. I guess baby carriages just can't be operated single file.:p
As I was perusing all the running club sites with their "rules of the road" it was interesting to see that almost all stated that runners should not use iPods, at least the lone ones. I probably ride or walk up behind at least one young woman a week wearing an iPod who hasn't a clue I'm there (even at night!). Lucky for her I have no nefarious goals.
