I think of it as a gang mentality more than a bike thing. For example, one or two walkers almost always go single file when a car or cart approaches. If three, one almost always separates from the two. Five or more walkers block the street and make no effort to allow space fir anyone to pass. I see that same mentality with bikers. The biggest difference is bikers seem to always be in a gaggle so they always take the right of way.
