Correct. The cyclist is riding from right to left, with the bike wheels
almost in the gutter, next to the pavement, therefore they're on the wrong
side.


That sounds like the cycle lane along Petty France. Road is eastbound
only, cycle lane is westbound only and on the north side.


All the on-road contraflow cycle lanes I can think of are on the left
side of the road. If you can remember, is there any obvious reason why
the lane in Petty France is on the right? Is it separated from the
main carriageway by a kerb or simply a white line?

The one outside my window is on the right, now I come to think of it.
It is separated from the main carriageway by a kerb.

No, unless it's that there's no side turns on that side.

Kerb, IIRC.
