Riding from Bondi to Brookvale last night, nearly got hit twice. And they weren't just "that was close", they were car brakes locking up and all of that. Very scary ride.
In motorcycle circles, they always say it's not a matter of if, but when will you have an accident. I always shook my head at these comments, having ridden sensibly for 6 years with no accident. Then I had two.
Am I riding too fast around the city streets, or is there just no escaping the taxis, vans, idiots who aren't looking? I have a plethora of lights, and wear a longsleeve fluro jersey......I'm contemplating a helmet light/flasher after last night.
