Almost didn't get in today. Bike path is routed onto a sidewalk at the corner by my office, As I passed a gas station a delivery van almost took me out. Don't know where he was going as there was traffic, and he couldn't have gone anywhere. His bumper left some dirt on the left rear panier. If I had been clipped in I would have surely fallen into traffic, but with the regular pedals on, I was able to get my feet down without falling.

Way too close!

Most of my commute is on two lane road with heavy traffic on a narrow shoulder. But it's the sidewalk portion that I always consider the dangerous part.

Take care!
