I've done a lot of riding this week and have got into the habit of giving a thumbs up and where possible a smile to any driver who gave me space. Most of these miles have been in the country but some in the city. I've really enjoyed it...receiving a toot of the horn or a quick flash of the hazards to say thanks especially when I've waved them through when they've kept their distance.
I've really felt in control of my fate this week...and to be honest, I'm not sure I've had to use primary position at all. This is mainly down to the width, quietness and quality of the roads where I have been riding though. The considerate driving I have experienced was just icing on the cake.
