If you want to go to those areas at those times in a large group I'd suggest you don't speed, have a small plate or (stupidly) loud pipe or are prepared to accept the consequences.

Also (as has been said) don't confuse MCN and facts!
ahhh now when I mean large groups I mean somewhere on lines of 50 plus!!

For the last two years I have attended the orgs Annual Rideout weekend, but not done the actual rideout itself. Too many bikes for my liking(but we're not getting into that topic here)
I regularly meet up at Squires with other org members during the summer, for a nice mid week giggle, and there could be up to 12 of us meeting up for the ride there. Some bugger off into the distance and some of us stay close. I know the way so I ain't in no hurry besides with a few thousand bikes there you can never find a parking spot big enough for a blonde to park in
I get more concerned going there for being pulled for a loud can which has spent eight years happily on my bike doing nobody harm. Police blatantly stood just round the corner pulling anyone they seem fit, just to get there quota for the week...now that really does get my blood boiling, so I assume it would boil if this so called pulling of groups would come into play.
