[QUOTE="LkeAF, post: 2203410, member: 118231"] Feenix, I don't know you, so please don't think I am referring to you individually. And your golden rule is spot on. Etiquette is the same as it is for a motorcycle and I appreciate you seeking to understand it. In this area that means that e-bikes yield to everyone just like motorcycles are supposed to. Mountain bikes yield to hikers and equestrians. Downhill riders yield to uphill riders. Everyone yields to equestrians and I forget if you're supposed to be on the uphill or downhill side of the trail and speak to the equestrians so that the horse can realize you're a human. Horses generally do not yield to anyone, mostly because the dismounting/remounting and it's harder for them to get off the trail to yield to another user. In general, your golden rule will keep everyone happy. As a mountain biker, I often slow down and make the effort to step to the side of the trail and let hikers go by, only to have the hikers then hop to the side and wave me through. It's all good. I made the effort and showed that I understand that they have the right of way. They, in turn, appreciate that and understand that it's easier for them to step out of the way, and so they do.
