If they do it's hypocritical if they continue the "We don't have liability insurance, you're on a private excursion on public roads, you must follow the rules of the road." and then mandate things on top of the existing laws. (Whether or not they are sensible...)
I see many people point to the "private excursion on public roads" bit of Audax and claim that the organisers have no liability at all.
For ultras like the above it's even trickier if you describe it as a race and publish finish times.
