So long as they are going faster than me (so the gap is increasing) I don't 
mind that so much.  Another thing which is funny is the people who overtake 
you, pull back in, and then slow down forcing you to overtake them back!

Yeh that's an unnecessary risk to take, generally if I can see that nobody 
is behind me I don't pull back over unless it is quite a big gap (ie I 
wouldn't actually be overtaking anyone for the next 2 minutes).  If there is 
a car behind me I usually try to estimate how quickly he will pass me if I 
move over (you can usually tell quite well from how quickly they approached 
you).  If the driver is obviously wanting to go pretty quickly and looks 
like he has a powerful car then I'll move over into a quite a small gap, 
knowing that I can probably pull back out again pretty soon without having 
to slow down at all.
