Do they know you do this in California? OH WAIT. That’s dodge ball.

And I am a ‘Noelle-type personality’ who is mother to a ‘Lauren-type personality’. When people tell me how well Diva Daughter played, I feel like they clued me in. Cause I have NO idea what being good at sports is.

I’m MUCH better behind the scenes than participating.

I’m the same way about sports — I like the solitary stuff where I can go at my own pace. I always thought I wasn’t athletic, but it’s really just that I’m not a team sports kind of gal.

At least you have found your niche and that’s great. I fear all things flying at my face, balls, people’s arms, weaponry, etc.

And I was the girl in soccer that would run away from the ball. Yeaaaaah.

So I think I know the answer to your question – when you’re on a bike, you should act like a car – go with the flow of traffic, including moving into the left-hand lane when you need to make left-hand turns. Just be sure to use your hand signals and look over your shoulder before changing lanes. Although you get to act like a car, you don’t have all that steel protecting you so you have to be much more careful. (And even though they look dorky, a bicycle helmet is a must.)
