Practice swerving. I do almost everytime I'm out whether in town or on the highway. I do hope you know how to push steer the bike. Manhole covers are great targets to avoid while practicing.

I started doing that with manhole covers and potholes. We have plenty of potholes in queens, and Manhattan N.Y.

I play dodge with dark spots in the road and with those black oil lines that trucks leave. Use breaks in the black to dart into the other side of the lane. Not only is it good practice, but any drivers watching think you're insane and they keep their disatnce

How come trucks leave black oil lines ? :??:
Looks like waste oil dumping to me.
