What exactly does it mean to "not yield" to mountain bikers? Walking along
the trail yesterday, often if I moved a few inches off center, there was
room for the biker to pass. Do I just stay in the middle? Are bikers
expected to actually stop, and let us pass? Just want to be on the same
page here as everyone.
