September 2, 201311 yr Moderator Just over an year riding and I'm getting pretty good at looking out for these hazards . A bold statement. Even with a few years of riding under my belt, I rarely go a long period without someone still surprising me with their antics!
September 2, 201311 yr Author Heh, I meant that I'm better than how I started off but in no way was I implying that I have fully mastered the skill of hazard perception. In this instance, the door zone is a pretty common hazard though but I'm always learning .
September 2, 201311 yr Moderator Something new to learn every day. Keep getting those miles under your belt, safely.
September 2, 201311 yr Yep always ride like they are all out to kill you then nothing supprises you to much.
September 2, 201311 yr Yep always ride like they are all out to kill you then nothing supprises you to much. I don't know... It doesn't matter how many BMW driving w*nkers try to kill me it's still a bit of a shock when an X5 slams his anchors on at the same time as pulling in front of me. Happened on the way back from London on Sunday. Makes the heart beat a bit faster
September 3, 201311 yr All these wee moments (if we're smart) make us better riders I think. So, well done j0hn As dt502001 says, assume they're all out to kill you ... Advice I ride by! But I do agree with obriens65 ... Still tightens the ol sphincter muscles when you have a close shave
