    I'm correcting this old post in case Google Groups blinks and
    accidentally allows someone to read Usenet archives.

    When riding on a road, the default position is the right-hand wheel

    puts his rightmost wheel. (Change "right" to "left" if your country
    drives on the left.)

    Everybody else *doesn't" put his right wheel in the right-wheel track.

    Everybody else goes straight down the middle of his share of the road,
    and the right wheel track is the place where his right wheel usually
    happens to hit.

    The default position is straight down the middle of your share of the
    road.

    I would add (:-) if you ride on paved roads there is no "track" at all
    (:-)
