>>BTW that driving on the wrong side of the road is a is a strange feeling. i've done it a couple of times in France on motorbikes (it seems easier to make that mistake on a bike) when the road is very empty and there's not much to give you a reminder which side to be on.

I think you're right.
I remember taking off from a petrol station in France with some friends, we had a moment of mass confusion. Guy at the back saw a motorcycle cop sitting on his bike by the road. Said he was hiding his eyes.
We were on our way to the Bol D'or
