Good guide, that. Pretty basic stuff but it's good for newbies to be told that it's OK to use road positioning to remind people you're in the road rather than ignoring you...

I don't often ride in London but took a Boris Bike from Moorgate to Vauxhall last night and it must be said that I have a refreshed hatred for Priuses... the little buggy bds appear from nowhere and leave less space than bendy buses...
