Ride the road you would never cycle
“Cars close behind you is the whole fear. Taking the lane properly, so they have to wait, is what removes it, and the road you avoided is suddenly one you can use.”
The Recipe
- Get a bike, yours or a hire one, and take it to the busy road you would normally never cycle.
- Ride it taking the lane fully, where cars have to wait, rather than hugging the parked cars.
- Hold the lane for the stretch that scares you, then turn off once you have cleared it.
