Comment | This is the best advice.
It's recommended in the highway code that cyclists ride in primary position when possible.
I used to not really understand why and be very nervous about doing it, but through a bit of experience I've come to realize it's a basic necessity when cycling on the roads. If you cycle close to the pavement you invite close passes. Even worse, it can invite cars to attempt sketchy overtakes when there's plainly no room in the oncoming lane. |
