Today, I'm feeling a bit bad about myself. I'm new to cycling, and to be quite honest, I was going too recklessly and almost got myself hit by a car or two. I could absolutely learn how to check my turns better.

What are your favorite tips for learning how to cycle safely in the city?

Sorry but this advice is kinda ridiculous. I commute year-round on 35mm tires, but including Canadian winters. I've never really felt like wider tires would be beneficial, except 2-3 super snowy days a year. 50mm is wider than most people use for mountain biking here, let alone commuting.
