Around here we have no end of speed humps, especially on the approach to and in the middle of pinch points. These are presumably designed as traffic calming by restricting the flow of traffic to one lane for about 10' with priority arrowed in one direction.
My problem with these is that to keep primary I need to ride over the centre of the humps for 100 yards or so prior to the pinch point, if I go around them toward the curb, it sends the wrong message to other road users, especially oncoming traffic.
Is there a better technique for these? (Not all have one of those skinny little cycle lanes that runs to a parked car to one side for that to be an option)
Sorry if the description's not clear, I looked on google but the roads I have in mind must have had them added after google took the photos.
