Another recommendation to do cycle training.
Having ridden in the London's famous London for 5 years, I was skeptical but am happy to have spent 2 hours doing this.
As many councils offer this free, there is absolutely NO reason not take some training. I learned a couple of little things (like positioning at junctions, and general road position and even emergency stops) which immediately helped.
My trainer was lovely lfgss member ShannonBall so there are even "people like us" who did this and if you pay council tax, start getting your money's worth - check your bill to find out your local council
Links to local councils that offer this:
Westminster
City of London
Camden; and for the fashionable amongst us
Tower Hamlets
