I hear you so much. Last season i pretty much only rode gravel for a couple months. I had a woman in a minivan full of kids tell me she would run me over next time she saw me on the road. i guess it was the unicorn on my jersey that set her off?

get off the roads for a bit, then when you get back on them, wear super bright colors and really bright lights and own your space. these folks really dont want to hit you, as it would slow down their days and cause some kind of inconvenience for them (i dont for a second think some of them would actually have a problem offing me).

so take a break, dont sell your favorite road bike, and when you are ready, find quiet roads at quiet times.

and Happy Birthday!
