It can get dicy, especially in traffic. Give yourself room.
If I can stay out of the thunderstorms in the morning it is going to be a fun ride to work (heck - since it will be warm, it will probably be a fun ride even if I am wet, as long as I have not been electocuted). Coming home...well, I might be crying all the way riding into a 30mph sustained headwind with 55mph gusts (on a single speed to boot). Maybe I should take the yuba cargo bike just so I have the super low gearing available to me.
