But in law (as I understand it, please correct me if wrong) I'm a road user and as I was using that carriageway first (I didn't just step into it) I absolutely have right of way.

As far as i understand it, users of the road that do not use have an engine have right of way for their own protection. Imagine if all of a sudden bikes, Horses & Pedestrians had to give way to Cars, Trucks, Vans etc . . . . there would be chaos and a load more road injuries.
