Truthfully, I RARELY lane split, unless it's warranted (ie. it's fuckin 45 degrees celsius outside and I'm in full gear). Most of the time I simply don't need to. The first time I did it, I was 15 cars back or so at a stop light, and my buddy (who I was riding with, I only had a permit) was at the front. I snuck up the middle to get beside him. I've never seen so many middle fingers and heard so many horns. People can be really uptight. Lane splitting, if done right, is harmless. The problem with Calgary would be changing the habits and opinions of people. I saw a guy swerve at a bike that was splitting on the highway...he no longer has a mirror on his volvo...
