If you were in the curb lane and turning properly, he should have passed you on the left because you're no longer a part of the flow of traffic and he is. If you were turning from the traffic lane, with a curb lane between you and the curb, he would have no reason to think you were making a turn there (even if you were signaling - because a lot of idiots signal when they're planning on turning) and passing on the right would make sense.
I've noticed an increase in recent years of people making right turns from the traffic lane rather than properly pulling over into the curb lane and it annoys me so much.

That's a good point. A cyclist still shouldn't be there, but if Pepsifree had been far enough over to turn, there should not have been room for the cyclist to be where he was.
