I agree, in most every close call I have had, I am a part of the problem. Had I not been going hard, I would have been more cautious around the truck and avoided the close call all together. Just part of my humanity I guess. . . .


Least you are aware of your side

A lot of it comes down to speed, They see bike and they don't factor in the speed at which we can move. Have had some close calls in the past where i have been told . They saw me coming but didn't think i was traveling that fast .
