I suspect you are not a cyclist. I am. The actions of virtually all cyclists are motivated by increasing our visibility to cars and not putting ourselves in positions where we will collide with a car or be driven into the curb by a car. This generally involves moving to the center of a lane at certain times such as when entering a roundabout or on curves on two lane roads. To suggest anything else is just absurd. Unlike you, I will get out of the way of anything or anyone that is likely to collide with me. I have been hit by a car as a pedestrian and I have had a crash on my road bike (hit a curb). Trust me when I say you don't want to be involved in either of those.
