I didn't say that but agree with the philosophy. They are not laws, but commonsense rules drummed into me since I was a child.

As for running in the middle of the road - they are quiet roads and as I am running towards only a few oncoming vehicles each run at most, I have plenty of time to move to the edge or off the road till they are past. Easy enough to be sensible and share the road...

Roads are only for commuting on the bike? And running only on trials? Roads are a public infrastructure and owned by all, where does it say that they can only be used by commuter cyclists or motorists? Where do cyclists train if not on the road?
