Hi,

On my commute I have to turn right onto a 1 way two-drive-lane street, and then after two blocks make a left.

Is it OK for me to be riding in the left hand lane the whole way that two blocks until I turn left? It feels safer. But I can tell it annoys cars that I am not riding on the far right or right side where they are used to seeing cyclists. I usually take my own lane on the left and pedal like mad, just to be sure I'm keeping up with traffic while trying to avoid ticking anyone off.

Am I doing all I should do?
