We strike fear in the hearts of all w/o spandex.
It's horrifying to hear the strength in your voice that rises from being in a group. Riding in a peloton is not a difficult skill. It does not make you strong. It does not make you frightening. It does raise the ire of local politicians. This is a very bad bet for cyclists anywhere because those politicians live for their constituents - and there are a lot more runners and dog walkers than cyclists.

Pick a fight you can win. And, if you need the strength of a group, don't pick a fight at all.
