Well it is just not me then... I had a local membership for three years simply for the local dealership discount that it gave me. I decided last season to finally go and ride with the local group. A simple 100 mile round trip to a well known biker bar that had good grub. The road captain left a lot to be desired. We had about 15 bikes in the pack which should of been simple enough to keep together. The pack ended up broken apart a number of times and the pack never mantained a consistant speed. The worse part is that while at the bar the road captain and a small group of others decided to bar hop leaving the majority of us to head back home alone. Not a big deal for me but a few had no idea where they were and tagged back with me. What a selfish group. Never seen a group that did not finish a ride..... Never again.....

I am with you She, always meant to give it a whirl sometime but never had much stomach for it when it came around to it. Cool if that's your thing, but I'd much rather go solo or with a good buddy or two.
Does this qualify as a "Drive by"? 
LoL
Uhhh, the MASHER! LoL

I'm cautious of large group riding cause you're not always sure of the riding ability & intoxication level of the riders around you.
I go on the occasional poker run if I feel deeply enough about the cause, which amounts to 2-3 a year.
Give me the wide open road & the freedom to pick my own route & time table.
