I try my best to be an upstanding representative of the cycling community. I tend to wave at cars that yield for me to show appreciation. People already hate us, so no point adding fuel to the flame. Though my first rule of road cycling is not to ride like a road cyclist expecting everything will go according to the rules of the road. I try to ride in a way that guarantees my safety and I always make sure I have a bail out like a sidewalk or avoid roads with no shoulder. I also time when I ride through certain areas to avoid road congestion or heavy traffic. My goal is always to get back home in one piece!
