Hi everybody. I'm a new commuter to work, then possibly beyond. I live in San Antonio, TX. Or as I like to call it, the land of no bike paths and huge trucks. I am adapting and finding new ways to get around and getting much better at hills (yay). Which brings me to my question. I have one area that is uphill, no shoulder and the road in under construction at the very top of the hill. Where the construction is, the right lane is closed. Does anyone have any suggestions about how to merge back in with the traffic without having to stop. I suppose I could go through the zone, but I worry that people are going even faster on the back half, and it could be more dangerous. Right now I use hand signals, and waiting until there is a gap. Any thoughts would be great!


Oh btw, I have been lurking for a while and have been using all the tips that you guys have given. Y'all are awesome!
