Andy only problems I have ever had is when I have not made it to the front as living in a city everyone is in a big rush. On the occasion I is talking about I was on a underpass and did not see a cyclist until I got round the apex. So I dropped back 3 car lengths to give the chap space and give other road users ability to see what was developing whilst the cyclist was at red lights. While stuck on the centre line on a duel carriageway cagers took it as a sign to push the limits and took it as a race although I only filter slowly and observe what is developing.
Reason I go up front is to show my expectation especially on multi lanes but this was on occasion I wished I had waited half mile back for all concerned. As a motorcycle I did think it better to hang back for the cyclist as this was on a quick round-a-bout onto the M1, A and B roads.
I is with you and mickvp on this one but with all the best intentions anticipating what was developing does not always seem to be obvious/predictable. For me as an old man slowly does it to expect the unexpected.
