It’s mostly lanes I’m talking about here Graeme, often barely room for 2 cars to pass.
And if, as around here, there a double white lines for miles because of narrow country lanes.
If there’s room for 2 cars then the cyclists shouldn’t be taking up more than half of it. If there isn’t then, well, single-track lanes are never really quick I’m afraid. We get a lot of horses around here.

Rule 213
On narrow sections of road, on quiet roads or streets, at road junctions and in slower-moving traffic, cyclists may sometimes ride in the centre of the lane, rather than towards the side of the road. It can be safer for groups of cyclists to ride two abreast in these situations. Allow them to do so for their own safety, to ensure they can see and be seen. Cyclists are also advised to ride at least a door’s width or 1 metre from parked cars for their own safety.
Rule 66
Be considerate of the needs of other road users when riding in groups. You can ride two abreast and it can be safer to do so, particularly in larger groups or when accompanying children or less experienced riders. Be aware of drivers behind you and allow them to overtake (for example, by moving into single file or stopping) when you feel it is safe to let them do so

And we ride them here, and pull over to let vehicles through.
And wave to save thanks.
this is a joke (sort of) thread, fuck off to pfm if you want an endless circular wanking argument over cyclists vs cars.

Good point, sorry, wish we had moderators 
If you pass a cyclist, even just one or a single-file, without your driver’s side wheels crossing the double white lines then how can you have given the cyclist safe clearance ? Does he/she just have to accept that you have a right to risk their life so you can go faster ?

You probably need to get out a bit more Dave…
True. But that would mean having to meet people.

You don’t have to meet them, you can use it as practice of ignoring them.
