Ron, I think I see a new line of Sackville bags: the hog-leg! :) Deacon, Some great tips already have been offered that I employ including hand gestures to get cars to slow and wait as well as wearing bright colors and using blinky lights. One other thing I do is to festoon my bike and bags with American flags. Since embracing this I have been treated more respectfully on the road. It's not a panacea, but I have perceived less hostility. I have many theories to why, but those are less important than the positive effect it has had, photo here of my commuting setup: https://flic.kr/p/AwopXg With Safe cycling wishes, Erl PS: if you don't already, then I would recommend your children ride in between you and your wife. When I ride with my sons alone, I ride last in line in the hope that I am more visible as I am larger and also if a careless driver happens upon us, I am hit and not my sons.
