nawwwwwwwwww you ain't never scared me once Dave....well cept'in when you got runned over...that scared me plenty...but that weren't your fault....I think Jeff was just doing a PSA...

 

Nope but there are a lot of new folks in the Crew of late and it is always good to review.

I don't scare that easy besides we were riding like old people have sex; slow and easy.


Bill, folks are still having nightmares.

This was just PSA not meant to offend anyone. If I every have a problem with riding with someone I will let them know but some folks are no open to constructive criticism so I have quietly pissed off a couple in the past.

Let's just stay safe. I don't want to lose any of you bums.

 

Good video, Jeff. I still think the most dangerous and most difficult riding is riding in a group. The Florida Crew is growing every year and we all ride together pretty often so knowing and practicing good group riding etiquette is essential for our safety. If you ever feel that your in an unsafe situation, remove yourself from the situation. That's just good old common sense. Let a brother or sister know if he/she is putting you or the group at risk with their riding behavior. If they can't take the help, then screw them. Ride safe and stay safe. Ocala 2011, IS IT TIME YET???

 

 

Great post Jeff.... I recalled most of it from the course...

WOW, That is extreme!

 

Sorry man, but the video made me gag. Couldn't get past 3 minutes.

If you know where you're going- move to the head of the pack. If you don't know what you're doing- move to the rear of the pack. Learn to STAY in your third of the lane.

If you THINK you know where you're going and THINK you know what you're doing, then please join your nearest HOG chapter and fight it out with them. They will have these videos for you to watch too.

Folks with a bunch of years (and a bunch of miles) of riding under their belt can spot a rookie a mile away. The first stop during any group ride usually hen-pecks the rookies to the rear. (or should).

Common sense. No Rules, Just Ride.

 

I have found through leading a few rides, that there's always somebody that's gonna come up to you AFTER the ride and tell you just how bad a leader you were, you shoulda done this, you shoulda done that, but you never see them up front leading a ride...personally I'd rather ride back in the pack...less things you gotta worry about (is the new guy keeping up? is he riding safe? can I get this line of bikes around this truck all in one shot, should we move over and let faster traffic go past? etc etc.)...if this is a bit off topic I apologize, but it fits in the general theme of group riding...

 

After the last couple times I led Cagers were crossing the center line out to get me LOL .. Put me in the Rear ..

Is a good video had some great points .. But I like keeping things simple.. Expect the Unexpected... Because trust me, eventually it will happen ..
