Everytime I ride my bike someone tries to kill me (slrpnk.net)

I live in NYC and it seems like almost every time I go out for a bike ride someone almost hits me with their car. And then if you call them out on it they act like it's your fault. I can't even get out for a bike ride to clear my head anymore. I'm so sick of it.

Thanks that's a great idea. I've heard of things like this but somehow never looked into the possibility that it already exists in my city.

See if your local cycling groups do a commuter "bike bus" as well. There's one in Chicago that's become very popular.

You love in New York man, if it exists it can be found there. Best of luck out on the roads!
