back to Stonster question.
I have the same problem, I guess it is because I find cycling quite stressful at times, one mistake and you're down. But to ease this I concentrate on what I'm doing and appreciate that there are more good cyclists and drivers out there than bad ones (ahem).
Yesterday I saw a cyclist almost taken out by a car, he was on the inside and the car he was passing decided to turn into a side road - the traffic was at a standstill. The cyclist swerved and didn't fall down. The car stopped and the passenger and driver looked worried. The cyclist didn't say anything to them, just raised his hand to tell them to continue. I want to be him.
