Am I the only one who grew up where the law was cyclists were to
ride against the flow of traffic?
I can't say I ever recall it being law, but I remember my grandparents
teaching me to walk against the flow of traffic, so that you can see the
driver and the driver can see you, and I grew up with the concept of
doing the same on a bike (I'm unsure if they taught me that, or if I
just made the cross-over in my own child's mind); this was back in the
60's. I still see that as being the logical choice in some situations. I
also see the logic of going with the flow. Depends on the situation.
But I'm not one to speak to the issue, as I'm not a rider; when I rode
as a kid, it was because it was the only mode of transportation, not
because I especially enjoyed riding. As an adult, I'm way too lazy to
rely on a bike. (*burp* pass me those chips, would ya?)
