in Provo Canyon can be really crazy...especially with the speeds most drivers go.
The path really needs some maintenance though. Lots of roots buckling the path. A lot of foot traffic that doesn't follow directions. The city needs to repaint the markings so that wheels stay in their lane(s) and foot traffic stays in theirs.
I just about got taken out by a group of 8 cyclists coming up the path while I was riding down. One guy was straying into my lane. Could have been very bad.
Cycling just requires vigilance to the surroundings.
People rolling coal are in a whole different category of butt-hole.
