I recently almost hit a rider using the crosswalk while in my car.
Drivers don't expect anyone moving that fast in that area.
You want to turn left, move to the left side of the traffic lane as you approach the intersection (I know you know this).
I'd hate to hit a cyclist and I'd really hate it to be you...
