right and proper, I ended up on a helicopter ride to USC Trauma Center, I had a broken shoulder, broken collarbone, punctured lung, and broken ribs, and I was on blood thinners at the time. long story, but it was 100 % the other person’s fault (car) Thank you 🙏
Sorry to hear about your injury. Though riding the opposite direction can also be dangerous if a car pulls out and doesn't see you. I would stick to bike paths, fire roads and any routes that don't have cars.
