The Highway code includes very little information for cyclists, things that it does have are vague tips not really firm 'laws' and definetly not things that people remember. For example me and some friends got told off by the police for riding two abreast when there was plenty of room .
Cyclecraft is a extremely detailed guide on how to ride on british roads. I thought I was a decent cyclist but the book has tought me why I always nearly die at roundabouts & even details complicated techniques such as crossing slip roads on a big major carriageway.
Very well written thoroughly reccomended.
