Moving from the rail trail to the highway <<gulp>> was really scary. Though dodging the baby carriages and 5 abreast walkers, on the rail trail, was pretty scary too!
What I did notice is that I'm, now, much more aware of the bikers on the roads when driving in the car. Turning right, I now double check the side mirror to make sure that there are no bikers riding along side. I give a little more room to the riders on the road when I pass them. I check to make sure that, when I open the car door, I don't take out anybody. There are still some pretty aggressive drivers, out there, so just be aware of everything around you...and watch out for the roadkill!
