Good article! I think that the information provided is a farily natural progression for riders. If you & your bike get home safely every night, you're do'n something right!

I've seen a lot of wrecks cuz guy turn into wanna be track stars. I always leave room for error, a buffer. That jaggoff who just past me to show he is in fact "the man", wasn't paying attention to the gravel that I was aware off. He's lucky all he needs is a new bike and gear.

Great article. This helps me as I am a noob. DId some noob riding training with Cornfed last week and he talked about the saem position for canyon riding and then we went out and practiced it. He kept checking me in his mirror and saw me not doing it properly then reminded me to correct my position and follow his. Good things to know!

Mainly keep to the left lane or commonly known as the 'Fast Lane' but folks behind me in their cars almost are kissing my bumper here in Colorado and refuse to pass on the right. I dont want to break the sound barrier that the cars behind me expect im going to do being in the fast lane going the speed limit. Dont know what to do and would be open to recommendations.

BY LAW - slower traffic should stay to the right lanes. People here want to go as fast as they can in the fast lane. If there is a car kissing my bumper while I'm on my bike (this is effin' rare), I will gladly move over and let them pass. If you are just going the speed limit, you probably shouldn't be in the FAST LANE :p
