yeah maybe....i'd probably be further along by now if i'd been able to ride more...but the weather has been sh*tty...and no i'm not going to ride in that weather, with these bad roads. After i got hit by a car i was really scared of that intersection, with good reason- it was a really badly designed one and lots of people got nailed there. However,they've since redesigned it. But at the time I had to face it so i went through it...only i made sure to avoid it during rush hours and take another route. I also called the city and told them they really needed better signals there, which they actually did change. They must have gotten a lot of complaints about accidents. So at least some good came out of it. I wasn't really badly hurt either...just a broken finger, bad contusions and a f*cked front wheel...
