The summer sun is rising, and it’s kissing the day—days of outings, races to the park, or simply a new way of getting to work. For many, it’s been a year or more since last mounting a bicycle. The saying goes that you never forget how, but the first few attempts of the season are a bit wobbly for some riders. Nevertheless, you always seem to get the hang of it before long; and in no time at all, you’re whizzing down that dusty road.

There’s a ditch to the left of you and what you could swear—and almost do, ahem!—is a student driver to your right. Threats seem to lurk behind every turn, loom from every driveway, hover over every intersection.
With a bit of practice, you’ll soon circumvent the better part of these specters as easily as you do a fire hydrant on the opposite side of the street.
