I will try to screw up my courage and give that a whirl next time. It's ironic that it's the same timidity likely causing that woman to ride on the sidewalk, that causes me to hug the curb, possibly endangering myself.

As you can see, my cyclist mindset is a work in progress, no doubt affected by the fact that as a woman, I am genetically programmed to take up as little space as possible, seeking security in self-effacement, kinda like a psychic burqa. The idea that taking up more physical space might actually make me safer is a bit of a leap, but I guess I'll have to try.
