Maybe some kind of corn snake? He's in southern California, and the bike path was along the San Diego river.

Weird description, rattle snakes aren’t aggressive either. Every one I’ve met has attempted to leave after announcing itself

    I have definitely encountered aggressive rattle snakes. I'd be careful about assuming they'll flee.

    Speaking as an owner of five snakes, they definitely have individual personalities. Although I wonder if it’s regional too? Most of the ones where I live seem to be lazy more than anything else.
