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.

    They aren’t

    Bike clubs have a leader who manages the group. No one is outpacing the ride leader. It’s not a free for all race, it’s just a club

    Like it’s not hard to recognize biking is a great mode of transportation but you should not block the entire roadway for others when doing so

    Imagine an ambulance stuck in traffic from their terrible decision or a bus running late because he can’t make his route when going 15mph.

    At the end of the day the club is in the wrong, the car driving in the head is in the wrong. There’s no need to make it good guy vs bad guy when both parties are doing things wrong
