Posting the number to your shrink is a great idea if you can figure out how to use a cell phone through heavy traffic while you're turning left!

I agree with everything Veronica said. The only thing I would add is to ride in a straight line & be predictable. Look ahead on the road & if you see a pot hole, glass, your ex-husband, signal your intention to move out of the bike lane (I usually take my left hand and forcefully point to a spot 3 feet away as in "I'm going over there!") before you have to swerve.

OK, maybe you might want to run over the ex-husband. Bunny hopping is in the next lesson! A mountain biker will need to teach you that one...where is Irulan???
