Do you wobble on purpose?

Where the road is too narrow for a safe pass I'll take primary, but there are some roads / occasions on my commute where close passes seem more common and it isn't appropriate to take primary.
If I integrate a gentle weave / wobble into my riding style I get a lot more space.
Anyone else do this?

That's a different thread: "Does anybody ride into the kerb and lie on the floor on purpose"

I'll wobble to stop a SMIDSY sometimes - the whole lateral movement thing does work.





then there are the times on a Summer e'en, under the cloudless sky,in the countryside, with Mr Bluebird on my shoulder, while I gaily cycle along in my Summer tweeds alongside the sun-kissed fields of hay; I will sing joyous songs, waving at the friendly country-folk leaning upon their cottage gates who will respond with a cheery smile and harmonious chorus


Ahhhhh.... the life of a country cyclist.....

For years I refused to 'wobble' but recently I've done a few .......... and it does work.

If you ride like you don't know what you're doing then most motorists will act accordingly.
