This is from a regularly scheduled Everglades Bike Club weekend ride in Key Biscayne, USA, on a 10km stretch of road, and all the drivers know to expect it will be there in the mornings.

Roads don’t belong to cars. If each of the bikers were in their own car for a 3 mile long traffic blob for some hobby event no one would have batted an eye.
Wait, are you trying to imply that there’s some kind of driver solidarity where they don’t care about being slowed down if it’s by another car?
They’re certainly more used to it.
Less “solidarity” and more “lack of irrational hate for the out-group,” but yes. They accept that other car traffic has the right to slow them down, but get absolutely unhinged when other types of legitimate road users do it.
Roads don’t belong to cyclists either. They belong to everyone. Common courtesy says everyone needs to be considerate of others on public property.
Also if each of these cyclists was in a car for a 3 mile long traffic blob and did this as a regularly scheduled event, it would get shut down by the authorities right quick for disrupting traffic and lots of people would be mad about it. I know this because “car enthusiasts” do exactly that kind of thing fairly frequently and that’s the response it gets.
“share the road” mfers when its their turn to share the road
The overwhelming majority of road users have no issue letting people pass, and I don’t think the people who sit in the left-hand lane parallel with another vehicle or drive in the center of a 2 lane road for literally no reason are the ones talking about sharing the road.
Cambodian traffic law literally requires you get over and reduce speed if somebody is trying to pass, presumably to decrease cases like OP.
This isn’t Cambodia, it’s Florida.
Tell that to the sports stadiums in my city.
So? I’m assuming you’re responding to the wrong comment or didn’t actually read mine at all.
I was replying to your comment.
