Depending on which state you're in, riding 2 abreast within a single lane is legal. Same with weaving from side to side, but I personally wouldn't recommend or do either.

What's the best way to deal with these folks?
The best way to deal with such folks is exactly the same way you'd deal with being behind drivers of slow moving motor vehicles, whether it be cars, trucks, or motorcyles that are riding single file or 2 abreast. Same for horse carriages too. Ever been to Amish country?
