Good article Pat, thanks. Our local Red Men club started a riders club and I've been on a few rides with these folks, definitely takes some practice. I typically hang towards the back, feel safer in the rears.
On NY Day, we rode together and I was in the middle of the group. After one stop, a guy was with us I didn't recognize on a new Fat Boy. The group turned right off a two lane and the guy went straight. We were in staggered rows of two, fortunately I was far enough back from this guy that I didn't turn into him as he rode staight. (I was on his left side) Scared the guys in back of me but I was safe - didn't trust a guy that I hadn't ridden with previously.
