As long as the ride's well organised- people have each other's mobile numbers, and know where they're going- then getting left behind just shouldn't be a crisis. Personally I'd always rather be left behind than hold somone up.

I agree with the above having been on one rideout with the guys and gals. I felt rotten that someone had to wait at each junction for me. I had brought the directions and knew where everyone was stopping en route. though i feel that the guys and gals should make it clear at the beginning that they are happy to wait for the back markers. I was told to get more experience before joining the rideout again. That made me feel bad and not wanting to join in again
