Unsolicited riding on your wheel is a fact of life if you come across inexperienced people (never mind all the kit) and it's just something I shrug off. There are all sorts of ways of dealing with it, such as slowing down markedly, or doing the opposite if you're fast enough and dropping the person, or having a word if you can be bothered. It can be annoying but unless you're likely to brake suddenly there's no harm done.
Interesting, because I'm still relatively new to the whole riding a road bike around the park thing, I always assume that anyone else there is actually more experienced than me. I did find it annoying, but I didn't know if it was something you're just expected, or even obliged to put up with. Next time I'll be assertive with the fucker.
