Congrats on overcoming that fear. I'm lucky in that I have lots of countryside to ride through, but have to ride through town to get to it.
You are right to be pleased.

Riding on the road with heavy traffic scares me because of the fear of having to stop abruptly.
I am not very comfortable clipping in and out of my pedals yet so one of my biggest fears is having to ride at an intersection.

I would not want to be riding clipless in traffic. What's your distance between intersections?

Good for you! I don't think it's an irrational fear, it seems like a logical fear to me. I used to ride in traffic and I've found that since I stopped, those fear demons are cropping up in my head
Anyway, that is a huge milestone and congrats!!!!
