People merely out enjoying a walk on a trail where they're outnumbered by cyclists 2:1 don't have to worry about cyclists as long as they keep their head out of their ass and themselves over to the right so the bikes can pass.
It's called "common sense."
It also implies that bicycles have the right of way and not pedestrians. Pedestrians having to limit their travel for the convenience of the cyclists.

It's funny that you think it's always your fault if an automobile hits you while you're on the road ("by law it's not") but a pedestrian on a trail used primarily by cyclists can do anything they want including jump in front of a bike and if they get hit it's the cyclist's fault.
If the cyclists were not traveling at speeds that were likely to result in injury to one or both parties while passing said pedestrians this would not be an issue.
In reality the speed that the majority of cyclists fly by pedestrians on hike/bike paths is one of the reasons cyclists are disliked by so many.
