GR-Duthie: I ran into (almost) a Motorbicycle and its rider and his pathetic attempt at being clueless. Motorbicycles (I refuse to call them E-bikes) are illegal in King County Parks. On the Water Tower Trail, I came within an inch of a head-on with an approaching rider exceeding his skill level. I could tell this because he seemed frozen and unable to alter his cornering line when he spotted me. His falling over when he came to a stop was another clue. I politely informed him that motorbicycles were illegal at GR, and he acted quite surprised. After I told him he could check it out on the King County Parks website, he replied, "I talked with them and they told me they were OK." Uh, not only is that not going to happen, but the fact that this rider said he discussed it means he definitely knows his bike is not allowed on the trail.
