Legally, when riding a bike, you must ride in the same direction as traffic, the right lane in the US. You should ride as far to the right as is safe (unless you are turning left). It is illegal and unsafe to ride in the opposite lane (the left lane in the US).

Yes, you do. Both motorcycles and bicycles are included in traffic, although some lanes and areas may be restricted to or from their use.
