Tune your radio to KQED Monday morning (89.3 Sacramento, 88.5 in the Bay Area) for one cyclist's perspective of her rights to the roadway. Apparently, this woman recently took a Bike Ed class.
I haven't hear this piece yet, but I don't care for the wording "your lane". This seems to imply that roadway lanes are for motorists only. The lane is for all roadway users, CVC 21202 notwithstanding.
Here's the brief from the KQED radio website:

"It's My Lane, Too"
Bicyclist Linda Atkins explains why she not only has a right to be in your lane, it's safer for her to be there.
Happy riding,
David
