things are rarely as dangerous as people think... until their proved wrong
Just saying a little dust off of anyone skills set never goes amiss.
And while i like the camera for that 'afterwards' moment if needed (hope not)
i'd like to think those who have one also consider, & remember it's far better to play safe
then it is to be right, but lying by the side of the road..or worse.
we travel in India a fair bit, and over there it's a simple rule.
Might IS Right.
so heads up, stay switched on, and get out of the way if it looks like trouble.
I bike, some say that's unsafe.
i cycle, same applies
and then there's Horse riding, etc that others do, that's not for me.
It's all risk assessment, otherwise none of us would ever do anything.
So OP get out, give it a go, just be vigilant.
us two wheeled road users are vulnerable, and our best safety is always
the two eyes in our head, and our brains switched ON, AND scanning for danger..
From the start to the end of the Journey.
I'd say if you do take up the cycling,, and your into your fitbit, etc.
download a cycling app, or link to strava, etc made my journey in much more interesting.
(times speeds etc) add in the fitbit or any Smart watch/ Fitness trackers (recommend if not got one, the
Mi-Fit 4, sub £30)
and you take your exercise journey into new realms.
Enjoy the cycle.
healthier, faster & a way cheaper
way to travel
