I usually stay in the left lane until I need to exit the freeway or make a right turn. That way I only have to be concerned with getting run over from one side instead of both. (I ride to work every day on 75 mph+ freeways.)The point of being in the left lane is because you are supposed to be moving faster than the rest of traffic. If you are not, get the hell out. However, the comment about cars driving through the middle of group rides is right on. I remember specifically being told by the off duty PD riders pulling road guard for us to stay left for that very reason.

Here`s my take on this , as long as I am doing the speed limit I feel I can ride in any lane I want to, Call it the fast lane but does not give you the right to Speed over the posted speed limit... Emergency vehicles I merge but just because someone wants to go faster than the posted speed limit does not constitute me moving around just so he can go faster...

Blocking the fast lane and pissing off everyone one the road makes it better, not only for the bikers doing the deed, but for all of us out there.
I would like see them try that shiiit on 285 in Atlanta, because I want to watch (from a good way away)

Unless there is a vehicle behind me that wants to get by
If someone is coming up behind me I move over to the right to let them by.
I am also moving faster than the average traffic flow and I match speed with anyone coming up from behind (as I don't like tailgaters) until I can move over.

I do that, but flash my lights several times in the left lane blockers mirrors, use turn signals etc. Passing on the right is also dangerous, and I should not have to.

Which not to mention is also illegal in many states.
Not to say I haven't done it myself, but by illegally floating in the passing lane you're forcing others to illegally pass on the right..

Passing on to the right of a car that is in the left lane of a multiple lane highway is not illegal as long as it is a normal travel lane going in the same direction. I don't care what state you are in. Using the breakdown lane to pass is illegal....but not a normal travel lane.

After almost 40 years riding some of the attitudes I see never cease to amaze
