From what I saw, the bicyclists were in full control of their vehicles, while the motorcyclist wasn't. I don't see any way that they can be lumped into the same category, except that they were all on two wheeled vehicles.
Am I missing something or do you not feel that riding road bicycles on public roads for pleasure is appropriate? Or is it how they're dressed? In any case how does it make any difference what they were riding.
Maybe we should all ride on tracks, or maybe the sidewalk?
