Perfect day for the beach.
Unicorn bell on the bike will get some action today on the foreshore. People who dawdle in the middle of the path need to know the wrath of the rainbow unicorn bell. I usually ride at about walking pace on that path (kids everywhere seen too many close calls) so it's extra funny when people freak out moving to the left. But the huge uptick in elec. scooters this year is a risk. I'm in favour of them in general, but they don't have the same stopping power / maneuverability as a bike if little johnny decides to randomly get in the way. Saw a collision yesterday and there was no way the scooter rider was not going to stack / hit kiddo. I don't think there's a solution (except for slowing down), just an observation.
