This evening I went out and did 11 miles out on the road with cars (trying to get myself comfortable) and practiced looking back without a mirror. So far so good, only had one near crash and that was due to a squirrel running out in front of me.

I had a handlebar mirror on my last bike (Walmart special) but I found it bounced around a lot and I was constantly having to adjust it. I may try going without one for a bit.

I am definately going to get the multi tool thing however. Is one brand any better then the other or am I safe with buying the $12.95 one from Walmart?
