Someone on my bike team sent out a link to bicyclesafe.com, which has a great article by Michael Bluejay on how not to get hit by a car when you’re biking. I found I do a lot of these things intuitively, especially when bike commuting to and from work, but there were some other good strategies I hadn’t thought of.
I’m kind of a wuss when it comes to riding when it’s dark, cold, and rainy, so I’ve taken that last couple months off from bike commuting. Next month I’ll start back up again. The new Daylight Saving Time schedule is a major boon for my bike commuting schedule. This year it starts March 9th.
