If you were passing a group of riders the paceline behind you should have been patient enough to allow you to move over so they could safely pass you. Some groups don't like to slow down a few mph to make room for these situation, but would rather you just simply get out of their way. It's also possible that they might have just been announcing their presence so you didn't swerve into their group, so hard to say what was their intention.
