I was going to go out for a bike ride this evening. Then I got back to my dorm. The building that is connected to mine is being used as guest housing. Who are the guests at the moment? Pan-Ohio Hope Ride participants.
I decided that maybe taking the bike out right now would be a bad idea. I either look like I'm trying to impress someone, or will make an idiot of myself because I occasionally have issues with stopping. (Okay, not so much stopping, but getting started again.) Apparently, people in Spandex intimidate me.

Doubtful anybody would be paying close attention to you or watch every movement of yours.
Unless you crash in front of them.

What they said! It's highly unlikely that people are paying as much attention to you as you think they are. They have their own lives to deal with.

go ride, they won't even notice you unless you run into them. Dormitories are full of people who ride bikes every day... did you notice what color socks the mailman was wearing today?
