False.

Explanation
Bicyclists must travel in the same direction as vehicles and stay to the right of faster-moving traffic. When cycling slower than the flow of traffic, riders should stay as close as practicable to the right curb or edge of the road. However, certain road hazards-such as debris, rough surfaces, or narrow lanes-may require cyclists to move toward the center of the lane for safety. Keep in mind that bicycles can be difficult to see in traffic. Always stay alert for cyclists and exercise extra caution when approaching them.
