Do you use a bike bell?

Oh, I do, though I don't think passing on the right is proper/safe unless there is absolutely no way to avoid it.

Depends on the situation. On a multi use trail, you might be passing on the left....but it doesn't always work that way because there a many pedistrians that don't pay attention. Sometimes passing on the right is what happens. I'm not sure how your path is set up, but many times pedistrians should walking on the left side of the trail if they heading in the same direction as you (just like you would if you had to walk in traffic). Again, it all depends on how the path is set up.

(Passing on the right during a mountain bike race is allowed and acceptable here in Wisconsin....you just need to call out your pass).
