Do you think that confronting those two would have helped or possibly made it worse?

 

And the again, the OP is not the problem here, the guys riding like that are.

It is clear from the picture that there is not sufficient room for a car to pass safely and still remain in the lane that is still to be painted. The cyclists were doing fellow road users a favor by reducing the time required to veer into the oncoming lane.

PS : Am I the only one that thinks name and shame posts are ridiculous? What happened to just talking to someone to understand their reasoning? Attacking someone on an online forum from behind your user name and with them not having a reasonable chance to tell their side is just cowardly.

Edit: upon Looking at the pic again it seems like cars could easily pass in the right lane of a double carriage road, so the original post is even more daft than I initially thought.

The real question is why were they running away from you? No cliff close by? :whistling:

Where is the 1M gap?

That is part of the challenge with a single file on a very narrow / no shoulder at all. Motorists speed past you hugging the centre line and I have had a side mirror or 2 brushing my elbow or grip before. Worst even are big trailers that are wider than the towing vehicle.

If I pass a car on the right in a 50kph zone doing 60kph while attempting a KOM run do I have to leave a 1.5m gap?

 

Try that in Aus, and you're likely to get deported... hooning around like that...
