Did all the bike bells in Calgary get raptured last winter?

And are cyclists no longer capable of yelling out “on your left” before passing pedestrians on a path?

Since the biking season really started back up this year, I have had multiple cyclists just about hit me, or clearly have to stop behind me and other pedestrians on the path simply because they didn’t give anyone any indication that they were coming up behind us.

I typically keep to the right but I’m human like every one else and might meander on the path a bit (or pass another pedestrian on the left) but if cyclists would just ding their fucking bell, I’d know they were there and I’d move over to make sure they have room.

I get that lots of pedestrians don’t pay any attention to their surroundings but cyclists and scooter-riders at least have to make an attempt to make themselves known.

People already hate cyclists enough so stop giving them good reason to. If you can afford a bike and a helmet, you can afford a bell. If you can’t afford a bell, you can yell!
