Correct answer
Yes, in this case the cyclist uses the indispensable part of the carriageway on the right.
Yes. Under Article 36, where there is no specially designated route or part of a road, cycles use the right-hand shoulder if usable and sufficient; if there is none or it is unsuitable, they use the indispensable part of the carriageway. They should not ride alongside the centre line, and this road is not prohibited merely because it has no shoulder. The exception for prolonged winding descents, where safety allows, does not apply to dual carriageways, where the article requires shoulder use.
