Default Pass on the Right in a Ditch?

So I commute the rural roads to work everyday and this time of year you get the farm equipment going 10MPH. I am in my cage looking for a good time to pass when some a hole passes me and the tractor on a blind corner, but the cool thing was a dirt bike rider comes up on my right on the dirt median then takes his bike into the ditch and cruise on by at about 30MPH. The ditch was pretty deep and completely over grown with grass. Looked like a fun bike to have.
