    Under normal circumstances, I stand on my left and push off with my right. I can do it either way depending on the situation though.

    Oh and, I write right-handed, but do many, many other things with my left, so I'm kind of ambidexterous.

    Clip in left foot first, push off with left, clip in right.

    Coast with right back.

    I prefer to "walk" my bike when I'm standing on the left and always get on by swinging my right foot over. I think this is a by-product of riding horses.

    I am right-handed.

    After growing up riding horses my whole life, my left side is now the dominant one! even though I am right handed.. so I get on the bike from the left, i clip in on the right and push off from the left..... I have a very hard time doing things with the right leg for dominance issues... it is funny at times

    There's a very good reason to "walk" on the left side of your bike... avoiding tattoos, chainring bites and other kinds of messy drivetrain encounters .
