My experience is the danger mostly lies in either a cyclist or motorist needing to be a better/safer cyclist or motorist.My one crash in 20+ years of transportation and recreational cycling was the result of mechanical failure. I don't find unnecessary risk taking as 'fun', but a careful cyclist is usually not engaging in a high risk endevour.
