Sounds like the roadies were getting caught up in the "arrghhh I am a bike god! No puny mortal is as a tough or as fast as I am and thus I must enforce my devine right to the road", and were therefore were just being bike idiots.

Somewhere in their lycra constricted brains they reasoned that if they don't go blindingly fast, they may have to have to slow down and co-operate with other users of the bike path.

But I think ryan_c said it more concisely.

BTW I don't know if people with these trike scooters have ever seen themselves, I think they should be asking the "Do I look stupid?" question. The answer to which, is a resounding YES!
