I am pootling up on me todd early ish... bein a greeter..

however i must say this.......

if yu can pair up threes up- group up DO IT !

I rode up and back to the norf /south with Fizz and e.d and I must say it felt more secure- like we had more prescence on the motorway- nice feeling if you felt low when u stopped there was a laugh and somene to talk to..plus of course that safety blanket of other people if needed for any reason ..

I reccomend it..

but- ... give each other full names and emerg contact numbers before u r off.. and have 5 mins explaining your riding style- speeds you prefer- if you have filtered before etc... who;s leading- if you pull into the inside line it means can someone else lead for 20 miles or so... and of course-- who has the smallest tank and when petrol stops will be needed in terms of miles passed... stagger your positions so front riders can mirror you visually..

good section on group riding by cronos on the forum .. give it a read.

its an ace break and it starts as soon as you leave your door.. so having company makes it all the more fun with camaradre (sp) etc..

ride safe one and all.

see you there .

we're riding up with a couple of noobs from around here. Met one of them over weekend and have thouroughly explained there is no pressure on getting there in a hurry. I plod along and matt,,,well thats different. However he has a great deal of patience for new riders( funny..not with mine these days) and a great sense of direction and experience for such a young man. Which is why I offered his help. I like riding with a few, makes me feel more secure.
Thats providing he gets that flippin raptor fixed. Don't want him borrowing suzy, she doesn't like him, but at least she's running...he he
