Ok without context this one is hilarious to me.

It seems downright nonsensical but it must correspond to a path behind the camera, right?

I'm guessing there is a huge puddle or lots of mud blocking the main path after it rains.

it's the gravel. You can see that it's "smooth and even" where the desire path joins the designated path. On foot it doesn't matter but on bike that short section—who knows why it's there—is unbearable.

Oooh you’re right!! I can see where the concrete starts now that you mentioned it. That’s so interesting!

Desire paths Desire paths can be paths created as a consequence of erosion caused by human or animal foot-fall or traffic. The paths usually represent the shortest or most easily navigated routes between origins and destinations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desire_path
