my biggest fear as the lead man is being to slow! there will be one or more rides before the end of oct. right most are trying to wind down from a fun and stressful time in the h/c.
home will always be between the red and rio!!!

as always, ride the ride you are comfortable with ("ride your own ride").


More rides will pop up as the weather cools down. You have to be frequent in your checking of this board and TOB (dfwducati)

Just got off ticket probation this month.  I'm actually rather proud of my record given my lead foot.  17 years, two tickets.  [laugh]

I don't see how the group has stopped exceling at group rides.  There has always been a fast group, a slow group, and a sweep to make sure no one gets left behind.  If the slow group is riding above there heads and taking stupid chances, its just dangerous and ignorant riding.  Being in the back with the slower guys and riding at your own pace is the whole point.  You're not supposed to try and keep up with the fast guys unless you feel you're ready for that.  There should be no feeling of being left behind as the sweep is there for a reason.

Well said.  [thumbsup]
