That's what I was told. But I think it's a bit like checking your mirrors when driving. Should always be done but with experience it's done quicker and in a less obvious manner.
Husy-
It's about eye contact with drivers or just letting them actually see your face to humanize you a bit more so they think "oh look a guy on a bike" rather than "oh a bike". I'm doing an instructor course soon so I need to get this stuff spot on. What dancing james said about the number plates might be onto something if I get the chance I'll try that.
Clockwise
Had another session today, 1-2-1 with Louise from CTUK. Very good, got to spend a good hour talking junctions and roundabouts and have a ride around tulse hill gyratory. Lots of mentioning my looking back is there but maybe isn't strong/clear enough, might need to get an upright bike to make that easier.
