I can't say I ever recall it being law, but I remember my grandparents teaching me to walk against the flow of traffic, so that you can see the driver and the driver can see you, and I grew up with the concept of doing the same on a bike (I'm unsure if they taught me that, or if I just made the cross-over in my own child's mind); this was back in the 60's. I still see that as being the logical choice in some situations. I also see the logic of going with the flow. Depends on the situation.On 16 Jul, Steve Lamb wrote:William Pursell wrote:If a cyclist is riding against the flow of traffic,Am I the only one who grew up where the law was cyclists were to ride against the flow of traffic?
But I'm not one to speak to the issue, as I'm not a rider; when I rode as a kid, it was because it was the only mode of transportation, not because I especially enjoyed riding. As an adult, I'm way too lazy to rely on a bike. (*burp* pass me those chips, would ya?)
