I do a LOT of solo riding and small groups... Been involved in several accident investigations and a lot of research/statistics-studies/reports/recommendations... Very interesting how the accident-rate rises exponentially with the number of 'experienced' riders... I try to keep my tours/participation below those 'magic numbers', 4-5 bikes MAX 2-3 preferably and all one-up if possible...

 

........ but Smith & Wesson always tags along.

 

small groups of friends is my preference.

 

I pretty much ride solo.

 

I very much prefer riding alone. It has to be something special, really special for me to actually want to ride in a group. If it's a group of strangers then it's a firm never.

 

I prefer solo or with the old lady on the back, that way I aint gotta clear routes or stops or more accurately the lack of stops with anyone

 

tho im always looking for events to STOP at

 

Mostly I go at it solo. Once in while I meet up with another rider but thats all. No groups. For me there is too much going on within a large group and I feel that all my attention has to be with watching the group to ride safe and I don't enjoy just riding and the scenery.

 

I mostly ride with the same 3 guys. We've been riding together for over 10 years now and have become very familiar with each others riding style.

I occasionally will do a charity ride, poker run, but still try to stay out of the large group. I've seen too many accidents/near accidents in large groups.

 

I prefer to ride. Doesn't matter if I'm in a group of not. I do like riding with a group, as long as they ride and don't stop at every bar they come across, or some other establishment.

Probably why I don't go to rallies. They're more about parking the bike and partying. I'm more about riding and don't care about partying.
