Continuing "Britishisms"

[Angelo Graham <a3graham@admmail.uwaterloo.ca>]

Hello List:
Not to continue this for too long, does anyone have an idea of what the 
terms "offside" and "onside" (I think) mean with respect to the roadway?
Coming from a long association with British biking, there were many 
references to these terms in identifying parts of the bikes. This was made 
more confusing by the Brits driving on the left and these terms had 
something to do with sides of the road. Never really sure what they were 
talking about...

Thanks,
Angelo Graham
