Going back to the start of this thread, it's interesting to look at the case of Daniel Cadden from a few years back:
http://www.ctc.org.uk/news/2007-01-27/cyclist-who-refused-to-stay-in-gutter-wins-re-trial

"The judge and two magistrates accepted the arguments put forward by Cadden’s barrister, Francis Fitzgibbon, that there was no legal obligation for cyclists to use cycle tracks, that the police’s evidence did not support the alleged offence and that causing only a short delay to drivers did not constitute inconsiderate cycling"

More here:
http://www.camcycle.org.uk/newsletters/71/article14.html

"The court took the view that Cadden’s speed of 20 mph would have been excessive and possibly unsafe for a track shared with pedestrians. Someone riding at that speed should be expected to use the road."


Some may prefer using the cycle lane, some prefer using the road but this case proves that cyclists have every right to use the road if they choose to. (Personally I find cycling on the road on Priory Lane much safer)
