If it doesn’t hit you, it’s not too close;
Keep a fixed grin (or is it grimace?) at all times ;
Keep up a steady speed, fast enough so folks can’t hop on the back for a ‘lifti’, but not so fast as to skid in hidden sand patches;
Be prepared to hold conversations with strangers whilst peddling along;
Keep up a near constant stream of greetings to those you pass by;
Keep left! (avoiding children, chickens, potholes..)
If you have less wheels than me, when I ring my bell get out of my way! (This is my most favourite rule).

SO true! I had trouble with the "keep left" rule especially. I kept heading to the right side of the road after turns, then realizing my mistake halfway there and steering back - but I suppose veering to the middle of the road is a very Canadian thing to do.
And it's "fewer" wheels, Miss English Teacher. Tsk tsk!!!
I find similar with my disabled scooter here in UK. Pedestrians should be kept at bay. Car drivers should not be on the road. And why do people think they have to jump out of the way when I am passing?
