I propose the addition people who compile lists of
"trail-dumbshits" and shed arrogance the way my cat sheds hair in
the springtime.

Many, if not all, of the behaviors described are certainly
troublesome on trails, but it is important to remember that these
are multi-use trails, and bicycles are to the trail what SUV's
are to the highway.  A bicycle operated with wanton disregard for
other trail users is just as dangerous and despised.
