The sound of cyclists
comes from somewhere behind me.
Just wind in dry leaves.
It really did sound like 1 or 2 cyclists were behind me on this rail trail. I stood off to the right so they could pass, but they kept coming. I turned around, saw that nobody was coming, and then saw/heard dry leaves make the noise as the wind made them move.

Does the sound of the dry leaves moving in the wind hang from the movement of the leaves or fly in the wind?

A physics prof could have some fun with this. I’d say the noise flies in the air, not the wind, at the speed of sound. Wanna compute with 1% precision or better? Maybe the speed of sounds coming to me from the leaves is a tad faster when I am downwind and a tad slower when I am upwind.
