Your Responsibilities SITTING ON THE WHEEL - You should focus on the rider in front, and scan ahead. By focusing on the person you will be more aware of what is happening in the bunch. It won’t take you long to judge the distance between you and the rider in front. POSITION ON THE ROAD - Cyclists have clearly defined rights that allow riders to occupy a full lane, ride in pair formation and have the same responsibilities as motorists. It is dangerous to ride to the far left of a lane. This exposes you to greater danger from cars trying to squeeze past. A car should give you a full metre when passing. When possible give parked cars – with or without an occupant – a one metre clearance. Ride a metre out from the gutter to avoid glass and rubbish.
