I cycle in the middle of the road as the highway code intended. Keeps me most visible and reduces dangerous overtaking, plus gives me more swerving space.
As an occasional driver: thank you. It feels harder to overtake cyclists when they go towards the edge of the road, as they are harder to see and it feels like people are pressuring me to overtake when it isn’t safe to do so. Just stay in the middle of the lane where I can see you!
