It’s like an old acquaintance once said about being a roommate, "leave as little evidence of your own passing as possible". and that advice applies to life in general. There will always be conflicts even amongst the same user group. Sometimes one is selfish sometimes they don’t realize that a face time call in a public place with a loud voice is annoying. We live in a crowded world. People will get upset because someone else’s fun has a negative impact on their fun. And that’s not right.
I think when an area becomes too crowded we need rules and we need to separate distinct user groups to force us to get along.
The ebike thing I think needs to be addressed now too. If e-bikes cause a substantial increase in impact to trails and interactions simply because of growth we need to assess parking, trail maintenance and interactions with other users now before potential impacts include bikes.
