its never crossed my mind,but im ususally quite focused when on the bike,traffic aware for sure,but the incident of assault never taps into my senses..im the same when i walk the dog,and when i used to have a pub job and walk home at night ALONE.


one new years eve i was working and my bloke and his mates went to a house party without waiting for me,they got attacked and i walked to the party alone after my shift and had no probs,......i have been assaulted and that was in my own home by a stranger so its a real lottery out there.......

Gosh, I guess I don't realize how lucky I am to live in a small town where everyone knows me. I don't even lock up my bike when I go into the grocery store. Everyone knows whose bike it is, too. Even surrounding towns are friendly and there are a zillion bike paths in the area. My biggest danger is falling off my bike because I have to wave at everyone. I've never been scared and that's good as NONE of my friends ride and I'm single. One time a car did follow me to the post office for awhile, but when I arrived at the PO it turned out to be one of my students wanting to see how fast I was riding!
