We care about your PR. We also care about safety.
Good trail etiquette makes both possible.
While on our trails, keep to the right & pass slower users on the left. And why not give a friendly greeting when passing? Something more substantial than yelling "on your left!" and less time-consuming than your full life story. Remember, they might be working on their own PR too.
UPDATE: ALL TRAILS ARE CLEAR. 1:15PM 07/17
Please use caution in the South Park area of Lorimer Park as there are several downed trees.
There is also a tree down on the PPT (Pennypack trail) about half a mile from moredon road.
