That is the only way to ride. I assume other drivers are going to hit me if I don't avoid them.
“I assume other drivers are going to hit me if I don’t avoid them.”
Exactly. I have had bikers come up hard on me an be all pissed off I did not see them. Well I did not see them. If you ride a bike you are taking a risk that you will not be seen. It is your choice to ride.
By now you would think they would get the message. I sold my bike two decades ago when I figured living was better than biking. People expect cars on the road, not bikes. A minor accident in a car is fatal on a bike. I just had a friend here get killed by a motorcycle that hit him on a Bicycle.
It is dangerous out there. If you assume the risk you assume the risk. That said drunk drivers belong in jail but a lot of good that does you when you are dead.
