Oi! Wear a helmet Jesse! It's incredibly important and needs more people on board. Literally saved me from a serious head injury when biking. Dented the helmet and split my ski goggles up the center, that's how much force I hit with. Thanks to the two, not even a minor concussion.
Also (at least in sask) if there is no dedicated bike lane, then you use the driving lane. You can hug the right side and let someone pass if there's space.
But please, as an example/influencer, helmets are important.
