Here is an example photo from a recent organized bike ride in my city:

It's quite hard for me to square these images (not to mention my own experiences riding bikes) with your assertion.
- Silhouette 7y agoBut everyday cycling around a city doesn't look anything like an organised mass bike ride. Not everyone is an experienced cyclist. There isn't a predetermined route and there are no marshals to direct the riders around it. Different riders will be going in all sorts of different directions. The roads probably won't be cleared of other traffic. Junctions and other traffic controls will be operating normally.
