Riding alone is the best! Nothing to slow you down, and if you want to turn left, simply lean in that direction. That said, occasional group ride is a good time.

I usually ride alone too. Sometimes ride with one of my friends, but that's about it anymore

I like riding solo or with the wife. My brother rides with a big old group and I went once with them. Ended up riding home myself a different way. Too much BS biggest problem was getting everyone on the same page. Way too complicated for me. I like doing my own thing too much.

When my wife was alive, we always road two up... she would drop whatever she was doing to come along. I much prefered hyaving her with me rather than riding alone. Most of the time we would pick a compass direction for destination.... hey lets go east today! Ride til we were tired and go home.

Our first date way back in 1977 was on a 77 Suzuki GS550 and we got caught in the rain... she still married me!

I now usually ride with my brother and my two sons.

Sounds a bit like masturbation. Guess solitude has it's good points but in general I think good times are better when shared with others.

I ride alone the majority of the time. I do have some friends that I enjoy riding with and we ride some great times together. I actually keep a change of clothes & toiletries in my saddle bag because sometimes I don't even know where I wind up. I meet some great people in new little towns which I ride to.

I prefer to ride alone, or, maybe with one other bike.
