It's not really a case of entitlement, Al, it's actually safer (generally) for all concerned for cyclists to ride two abreast. say for example 10 cyclists are riding in a line, the line could be 30 yards long. On many roads this could prove difficult for a car to overtake. If the cyclists are riding two abreast the line would be half that, making it much easier for the motorist. Not obvious at first glance but when you think about it, it does make sense.
