Somewhere earlier you mentioned it was fun to ride with a groups. You ride in groups that DON'T take up the whole lane??
Later you stated how two cyclists riding side by side was "safer" for the motorist.

What the hell difference does it make if my reason for being on the road is recreation or fitness.
Fitness in this context IS recreation.
Any motorized vehicle (or horse drawn in the case of the Amish) moving that slow on a legal highway or roadway would be properly required by law to be marked with a large reflective warning triangle.
Furthermore, the general public obstructed by such traffic understands that those guys in said vehicles are not out there merely to get their jollies, they are there because they need to be.

Are you suggesting people on the road for recreational pursuits shouldn't be there?
Are you suggesting it should be legal for folks to walk down the road for recreation and fitness in a manner that obstructs passing traffic? Whats the difference?

Does that mean the guy slowly trailering his horses to the national forest to ride doesn't belong on the road?
What? Horse trailers always roll down the highway at 10 to 20 miles per hour, slower on the uphills?
You are merely trolling here. You started this thread for attention; a verbal form of putting yourself out there on the road in colorful spandex. But no worries, after your demise its in your will that somebody gets sued or whatever.
