One of the basic principles of road safety is that you are at greater risk if you are travelling at a speed that is significantly different to the general speed of the other traffic. However, slower is much safer than faster. My rule for riding slower bikes is either ride well out of the way OR take up as much road as possible to force other vehicles to wait until the way is clear.
