So, on my way to work today I noticed something... I was getting to 50 a lot faster, I was running yellows (nothing dangerous), I wasn't slowing down as much before a curve... I was more confident and it scared me a little, lol.
I'm getting a lot more comfortable on my bike and it feels good. I'm still keeping an eye out for the "soccer mom on a cell phone" but enjoying the ride a heck of a lot more.
I'm done wasting your time now, just thought I'd share.
