i'm going to start biking to school (about a 5-6 mile intercounty commute on a busy roadway with a lot of /bad/ drivers.)
would you guys suggest instead of going straight for it (i know how to ride a bike but its "been a while") to tune up and practice for a week or two before i start biking regularly this stretch? i definitely know i'll have to practice gestures.
i have the stamina but the last time i biked i had total disregard for traffic laws and relied on intuition/luck like every other teenager.
