I watched the video, rode with Pam and also took her course. I'm still nervous about riding with cars, but I have more tools to do so safely. We have great paths where I live, but they don't always go to where I want to go. Also, I am riding more to where I used to drive. Thanks, Pam! I might be in Charlotte again in May, hopefully on a Tuesday night for your ride.
