There are a few groups who treat the B-G as their personal TT course. In the past I've not named names, but since this is a continuing issue... Jet City Velo/Byrne Invent Masters (blue/orange kit), and Recycled Cycles; they're the worst two offenders, IMO.

Things I've seen on the B-G. (Not necessarily from the above mentioned teams)
- 20mph+ paceline passing like it's the TdF
- A grown man yell "Hold a <expletive> line!" at a child on a bike with training wheels.
- 3 people riding handlebar-to-handlebar across the trail and not moving for anyone.
- Pacelines bump-passing a rider who is already passing someone!

Now, there's nothing wrong with pacelining and training to get your team in top-form for whatever race/event you're competing in... but there's a place for it: Get on the road, not the MUP. Starbucks local team, Zoka (formerly Cucina Fresca), even Lakewood Cycling Club... all of them have some awesome pacelines. I've never seen them practicing on the B-G. They're always out on the roads.
