While I see the value of riding for a structured workout and I will do some when I have to when the weather sucks, as long as the weather is good, then I am going outdoors. Cars don't bother me. I was run over by a bus last year and I am over it, and OK riding outdoors. If I die riding it's good, it was worth all the amazing riding I did in my life in amazing places around the world. We will all die so getting run over and dying on a bike is a good option relative to cancer or rotting in a bed. We all have to die anyway and the riding reward vs risk is worth the reward.

I am very much the same as you Dev although now that it is cricket season I'll be spending more time on the trainer.A mate of mine used to be the coroner in Penticton and I would joke with him that if they ever find me dead on the side of the road they can just roll me into the woods for the critters to deal with and he can have my bike. :-)
I have been hit a lot and I am surprised I am still around to tell the tales but my only fear is surviving a really bad crash,I'd prefer the lights to go out quickly. I have actually started hitching my trailer to my bike for every ride now and people seem to be kinder to me when I'm dragging that damned thing.I even put Christmas lights on it today. :-)
