I could get some good thinking in riding. Like you said got to watch them others out thereUp until about 14 years ago I had motorized 2 wheels since I was 11. So, after 14 bikeless years I got back on the street in December '22. Can it be dangerous? Yep. Is it enjoyable? Yep. I did 200 miles on the bike today. Just like every other area in my life, I try to pay attention and not be stupid. I do my part. I just hope that the boneheads around me do theirs.
