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?

I can't really add any further tips, but to say that I always, always ride like the people in cars are trying to kill me. It's the only way to keep in the right headspace to ensure you're paying full attention to what they're doing.
