I am currently on the Isle of Man with the family before we leave for Dublin on Tuesday. Prior to this, we spent several days in London, then Edinburgh. I had planned to ride in each city as part of my vacation activities. I was looking forward to the bragging rights of doing so. I completely chickened out! I have never been more amazed seeing so many bicyclists riding. The traffic is crazy, yet they ride with the flow. Taking lanes and navigating amongst the busses and taxis. Particularly here on the Isle with so many twisting and winding roads. Portions of different routes have room for only one vehicle at a time. The riders are so bold to me. I am loving it, and living vicariously through them!
Kudos to all you brave souls I enjoyed (envied) reading here about your adventures riding in different countries.
