Actually things usually do not stay upright when there is gravity, they usually fall over onto their sides.

For something to stay upright when there is gravity they need to have an active stabilization system using feedback to react to and correct for every time it begins to fall over.

What is always at the center of gravity?

The center of gravity is the point at which your gravity attracts others, and others are attracted to you. This makes it your point of balance since balance is relative to the center of gravity of the object you're balancing upon. A bike for example, has it's center of gravity at it's exact middle, and you have your center of gravity at your exact middle, and as long as you can keep all of them directly on top of each other as you ride, you'll stay upright.
