Wouldn't the road be closed for cars? At least no one died
That's exactly what I was thinking how the fuck a car got in there the roads should be closed or marked. It seems to be a Highway to boot so there shouldn't be a lot of options left. The guy in the car was dumb yes but the organization incompetent.
Yes I don't know if this is a governmental issue or an issue with the event organizers.
Like obviously don't drive in the median and break traffic laws, but this kind of event not being appropriately managed is going to increase the likelihood of accidents. Mostly from assholes driving poorly
Based on other comments in here, this isn’t an organized event. It’s just a group of bikers that do this every single weekend.
So... An organized event.

~~Looking at their own rules:~~ Edit: the rules they suggest: https://www.active.com/cycling/articles/10-rules-to-group-ride-like-a-pro The second one makes sense when it's not a planned event. This video shows the complete opposite, the cyclists take up the entire road, five in width. Which looks a lot like an event, when cars wouldn't be allowed
Why? Bikes are completely legal for road use. Even when there's more than one of them. Just like cars!
