Been on many group rides over the past 3 years, all fun, some more than others. No news here, more riders means slower progress,
delays and greater possibilities of group segmentation and/or cage infiltration. There are many techniques to address the issues of
large group rides, most require knowledge and participation by one or more participants.

As an alternative, seems like groups of 5-7 machines, 5 minutes apart, is more manageable and maybe safer overall, especially
when passing through populated areas. Line of sight and capability to slow down without huge traffic impact seem to promote
natural group cohesion.

So, interested in opinions on whether a group of 5-7 can ride safely without a connected tail gunner???
