      1. Close shave this morning on my bike. Bloke opened his car door on me. I swerved just in time but it smacked my arm. Very sore now. He didn’t apologise. In fact, he was yelling at me. When are motorists going to understand that cyclists are vulnerable on the road.

      And I get it that *some* cyclists act like they aren’t. Every time I ride my bike I have at least one moment where a driver isn’t looking/concentrating/judging my speed or distance. Every. Single. Ride.

    I mean, is that fine? Is it ok to think every time I clip into my bike that I could have an accident? Mostly I push it to the back of my mind, but I shouldn’t have to.
