We only have the OP's recall of the situation. He never stated anybody said "Please" It's not really hard to see a scenario where they did indeed give attitude as result of having to move around him, roadies in a fast group can be like that. I agree that he should be riding as far to the right as possible. I see situations all the time on MUT's where you need to pass somebody riding in the same direction and you cannot move into the oncoming lane due to it being occupied. Riding to the right of the lane does make it safer for others to pass and is where the OP is wrong, he needs to keep to the right, just like in a car, as others have stated.
