Best thing I did was buy a big yellow jacket, there's no excuse for not seeing me.

+1 Looks Wilma-ish but so...

No collisions with cars after years of riding, a few close calls, (Knock wood) yes I have fallen more than once 'cause I'm a klutz, people are nicer to me than I'd expect. They were much meaner to me when I drove the car...

They don't yell too much but I get the Hoots and Whistles from men sometimes.

No one has ever thrown anything at me.

I've almost crashed with other cyclists, too who come up from behind or alongside with no bell or warning...
