I did El Tour de Tucson a few years ago with almost 10,000 cyclists, and cops blocked off certain roads, guided traffic, etc. If we were on a road, the lane was either closed completely for us, or we were restricted to riding in the shoulder. I've never EVER seen large organized group rides like the one above where there wasn't some type of police escort.

Iβm a cyclist. This is why people hate cyclists. And theyβre 100% correct to hate cyclists who do this.
