I totally agree with EVERYONE`S reply. Just want to add a few things. Do not pretend to be a bicycle, because if you do, you are adding the hazard of being "Doored" in city traffic. Use your whole lane. Also get onto the habit of watching people`s front wheels. When you see a cager using his directional light, only assume that the directional light works--frequently it has nothing to do with the direction he/she is intending to take. Finally, chill out, you don`t have to be a Mike Hailwood or John Surtees (I`m dating myself) Take it easy and enjoy the ride. Been riding 50 years and really still love it like it was day one.
