fwiw, i think it's a good idea. A lot of the group/club rides, in fact all of those in my part of the city, have a "Road Bike Only" restriction.
This seems like a friendlier alternative, YMMV.

I would imagine that this intended to prohibit TT/Tri bikes and fixed gears, both of which can be ridden fast enough to keep up with the A ride, but may not be safe in a group (aerobars) or on sharp corners (FG).
