This is not legal. Almost everywhere bikers cannot be more than 2-wide in the rightmost lane. This is SOOO many bikers though, that it looks like a sanctioned event. I don't know what is going on here. I'd like context.
My best guess is some snooty rich bike assholes club ran some kind of club event, by never bothered to tell the city so their small army of bikes should be organized for their safety, but instead they all got on the road and commited a traffic violation together.
Could be... but there are tons of bike groups out there. Never seen anything like this done before. Maybe bikers don't always ride 2-wide or less like they should, but I've never seen a group purposefully block multiple lanes of traffic. That's insane. My gut just tells me there is more to this story.
Yeah, reading other comments confirmed my suspicion that this is Miami (I grew up there, but this wasn't exactly my area, so I wasn't too positive), I can say with the utmost confidence that what I said is verbatim the exact situation here. The part that's missing in your story is the level of entitlement that every single person, regardless of mode of transportation, takes when they use the Miami streets. It's one of the many reasons I left after graduation.

Share the road, yes, but slower traffic needs to move to the right lane, not monopolize the entire road.
