Cyclists, along with every other pedestrian, horse-rider and carriage-driver can use any public highway that they're not specifically banned from. It's not a question of there being a law entitling cyclists to use dual carriageways - in this country it's legal to do anything, unless there's a law against it. And there's no law against cycling along dual carriageways.
There is, of course, a law which prohibits drivers from driving without due care and attention, which would (or should) include driving into cyclists, but that's very rarely observed IME.
