Today, I'm feeling a bit bad about myself. I'm new to cycling, and to be quite honest, I was going too recklessly and almost got myself hit by a car or two. I could absolutely learn how to check my turns better.

What are your favorite tips for learning how to cycle safely in the city?

Confident big city rider here, four tips for you:

  • Be predictable
  • Obey (most) traffic laws
  • Assume everyone is always trying to kill you
  • Don't leave your bicycle outside
