There isn't a rule as in the city council sat down and laid out a law. But I think anyone with any sense realizes you go on your right. Certainly two bikes meeting (in the ether as it were) without a pedestrian in sight should be able to follow this very sensible and safe convention, and one of them can be justifiable angry if the other does not adhere.
