As a lifelong cyclist with a lot of miles, I'm opposed to bikes taking the full lane. It is rarely necessary and only aggravates drivers. The only time when it might be necessary would be a very narrow road with no shoulder, like an underpass. There are bike clubs that ride two abreast in long lines every weekend and make no effort to let cars pass by them. At times there are two clubs coming from opposite directions and occupying both lanes, stopping traffic in both directions. You can't ask cars to "share the road" and then hog the road as a cyclist.
