Correct answer
On the hard shoulder.
On the right-hand shoulder. Article 36 expressly includes vehicles supporting and following cyclists when no road or part of one is specifically designated for them. If the shoulder is not usable or sufficient, they use the indispensable part of the carriageway. This does not mean every car merely travelling behind a bicycle must leave its lane to use the shoulder.
