Hi Adam,

Yeah I've nearly had a few encounters, once nearly ended in a lake because of a dog.

I guess the thing is, if the place you are cycling allows cyclists then I suppose you would definitely have to allow dogs walkers too, so its just about making the best of it really.

Is it a specific cyclist only path?

yeah in that case its not so good.

are the signs clearly visible? Might be worth contacting gobike, they deal with lots of issues like these and even have contacts at the council for helping improve signs and warnings to educate these walkers.
