Sir – To the motorists who are angry, rude and sometimes dangerous to cyclists riding in groups in the countryside — you are in a minority. Most drivers are polite.
It is legal to ride two abreast, you don’t have more of a right to be on the road, and of course we will try to move to single file if the road is narrow in order to be considerate. Perhaps you can be considerate too.
