Today, I'm feeling a bit bad about myself. I'm new to cycling, and to be quite honest, I was going too recklessly and almost got myself hit by a car or two. I could absolutely learn how to check my turns better.

What are your favorite tips for learning how to cycle safely in the city?

Learn to ride in primary & secondary positions
Keep your line (be predictable)
Physics doesn't care if you're right or have priority (always have an escape route)
It's not a race (unless it's a race)!
