Im glad this came up coz ive been feeling guilty about sometimes not doing a lifesaver when overtaking.....but usually when im on a commited ride and im sure about or fully aware of my surroundings ie...there is no way theres someone behind me.......different if on a rideout with some loons as you never quite know when they're gonna try an overtake behind you before you commit so in that situation id do a check.
Makes perfect sense to me....you are basically dynamically risk assessing instead of just doing something outta habbit every time.
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
