Group rides , why, are they no longer fasionble ?????????
'Zactly! And in that context, it's feasible to have smaller informally organized subgroups get together to travel together where all are comfortable and compatible. Kinda how it was for 6 of us getting to Red Bluff on our Fortuna trip last September -- perfect!In the interet of everyone's safety, good or bad riders, it's better to start adopting the " shared destination " concept.I'll probably still call for group "gatherings" now and again, but full fledge "runs" are history as far as I'm concerned.
Personally, I am running out of legal funds to continue leading any group rides.
But seriously, I have resolved to not ride with anyone that I would not be comfortable to swap bikes with. I will still do occasional large group rides, like the Saturday at WFO. But 4-5 bikes is my preferred group size. That's pretty much as many as I can keep in sight in the rear view.
More like penal funds, me thinks....Did you really get sued by someone? Do tell.Personally, I am running out of legal funds to continue leading any group rides.

Speaking of which, I keep wanting to do a 4 day shared destination, small groups trip: (1) 49 to 89 thru Lassen to Yreka, (2) 96 to 299 to 101 to Fortuna (leaving afternoon available for playing on Ave. of Giants, 36 or Lost Coast), (3) 101 to 1 to Bodega Bay, and then (4) back home. I made some noise about it some months ago, but never got my shit together or found an available time to put it together. Could be done where it was 3 days for some (with the Bodega day becoming a going home day for some).
Shouldn't you be at the jewelry store, KLR boy?Plan it and they will come
