There's really no set number, and it'll depend on how many riders there are, and how they are spread out, or lumped together along the course.
Peloton simply refers to the main body of riders sticking together.
some of them are formed inside the earth and take 100's of years to form and form large cyclists in that time
The individuals that take part in the Tour of Britain Race are from many countries and nations.
To find when the cyclists will be 10 miles apart, you can set up a distance equation. Since they are traveling in the same direction, the relative speed at which they are moving apart is 15 - 12 = 3 mph. So, the time it will take for them to be 10 miles apart is 10 miles / 3 mph = 3.33 hours.
It is about 400km. So it would take somewhere from 2 days for a fast road cyclists with support, to a week for gentle 60km a day touring cyclists.
Peloton is the name for a group of riders all bunched together. Riding like that, the guys in the front will take most of the headwind and the guys further back can hang in their slipstream, drafting. Drafting is less work so it'll save some energy for those able to do it. That'll leave them in better shape for a sprint at the finish.
The Peloton is the name given to the main group of riders. A Domestique is a support rider, someone who isn't expected to win anything important whose job is to support the star(s) in the team. They carry water bottles and food, they'll give up their bike if the star(s) should suffer a mechanical problem, they'll ride first and take most of the headwind so that the star(s) arrive "rested" at the climb, or the sprint where they are expected to shine.
The Highway Code does not specify road position for cyclists, however it is best practice for cyclists to 'take the lane' and ride in a prominent position in areas where it would be dangerous for motorists to overtake. The practice of 'taking the lane' has come about due to the overwhelming numbers of motorists who will attempt overtakes on blind bends and narrow roads, risking their lives along with the lives of the cyclists and oncoming traffic in the process.
