I've saved so much money this summer by riding my bike as much as I can. You are right, people are ignorant and oblivious to bikes. I constantly keep an escape plan and pay attention to what I believe their next move will be. Deer are actually more dangerous to me then idiot people in cars.

I don't believe time of day has anything to do with it over experience of riding on different road conditions.
