Crowds bring the mob mentality with them.
This could be my ignorance speaking, but it seems like the group rides are more of an issue due to the sheer size of the group. Safety in numbers is not an excuse for the distraction it causes every driver on the road. Rubber-necking is the term. Don't get me wrong, I like riding a bike every now and again, and with small children, the "share the road" think is very much in the forefront of my mind. I just think there is a point when too much of something good is a bad thing (look at all those good drugs around these days :-D). I can see this being the case here.
