Aside from a crappy platform for activism, it's let individual cyclists know that they don't have to suck up shitty driving from motorists and they they're not alone in wanting things to change.
Back when it was all new and shiny it would have proved a point and possibly made some people think differently. Now it's like kids stabbing each other. It's too frequent for it to have much social effect.
Hopefully cyclists will take up an idea put forward by a Globe & Mail journo in Toronto. Instead of a monthly ride on a Friday night, all cyclists should rent cars and drive to work on a Monday morning at about 8am.
