Dear Editor
I live in Caleb Village. I do my walk almost every day in Centennial Park. I enjoy my walks. I have a little concern, however. That’s people who ride bikes there. I would like them to have a bell on the handle bars and give a little dingle before they pass us.
It can be scary when bikers woosh past us. I am 95 years old and I don’t always walk in a straight line and I occasionally see something of interest, so I step over there to see it better.
My wife Noreen passed away in April, so my family and I bought a full steel seat and had it placed along the path. On a recent morning, while walking, I stopped at where the street meets the park entrance and looked west to see the seat. As I took three steps to the back alley to see the seat, I almost stepped in front of a bike. A little further along the path, there was a swoosh and a bike passed me.
Please put a bell on your bike.
