Hi all
I've recently moved to a new flat which is right on the canalside. It's given my runs a whole new boost, as there are also woods and trails around me now too.
Problem is: What's the canal towpath etiquette, if there is one? I tend to run on the left (as you would if you were in a car), but some other runners just head straight for you and won't move over.
The cyclists can also be a bit of a pain, and some seem to like to see how close they can pass you. The good ones tend to sound a bell if they are approaching from behind, to which I signal with a quick wave that I have heard them and I move over a bit. They then tend to say thanks as they ride past. Cool.
Am I doing something wrong?
