- March 20, 2010, 13:30:22 PMI tried to ride with groups. My church had it's own motorcycle club and we've gone on rides with as many as 30 to 50 other bikers. Personally, I don't like it.
I don't like having to stay in riding formation, as it seems to take the fun and freedom out of riding if you're stuck in your little "position"
Might as well take the car if you're going to do that.
However, I do ride with my wife sometimes. She has her own bike. I prefer riding with her or alone. I might be open to riding with a small group. Maybe 4 bikes or so, but screw the formation. I hate the riding formation.

- February 19, 2010, 10:11:22 AMI usually ride alone to get to someplace where I ride with others. So far the Drifter has been used to travel, where I'm almost always riding alone. But when I arrive there is usually a group of guys to ride with (Bikeweek/Biketoberfest/Drift-In so far). It doesn't get ridden much other than these times.

So I count that as two-up.

- December 10, 2009, 13:03:11 PMI ride a lot with others, I rarley ride solo, unless it's to work and back. I would strongly suggest joining a riding club, it really has been a great experience for me, there are always folks up for a ride. It does take a little to get used to group riding, but a CB will help out a lot.
Look into the Southern Cruisers, there are chapters all across the nation, and most of all, it for a good cause, all proceeds go to St. Judes Children Hospital.

- November 18, 2009, 21:55:13 PMI ride alot by myself, and love it as a way to unwind. my wife has abike so we go for rides together sometime on weekends and I am president of local CMA chapter so ride often in a group and to rallies. It is all good, and on my Drifter it is even better.

- October 28, 2009, 22:06:10 PMWell the reason we moved to South Texas is we can ride all year around. (Well except for the occasional ice storm!) 
I usually ride alone, but certainly will ride with most anybody. I also have started to ride with the In Country MC and our local chapter has about a dozen members.
My wife likes to ride on short rides until her joint pain kicks in above her threshold. 
I am working on taking my 99 - 1500 back to the old school look. Distresed Leather, Fringe, and two tone paint of Gooseberry and Cream. Right now I've got to find out what's causing a rather loud knock in the front jug. Wish me luck.

- October 24, 2009, 20:26:47 PMI ride all winter long. I don't ride in the snow or ice. cold not a problem. I ride alone everyday to work. When I take my black beauty for a long ride (weather not a problem) I ride solo the wife follows in the vette. can't find any all weather riders here in the Northwest, most are fair weather riders. it sucks to be them.

- October 24, 2009, 20:14:13 PMI ride as often as work lets me as I travel out of state . 400 miles is a good day of riding and I seldom come home with less than 300 miles. I ride in all kinds of weather and I ride alone most of the time. I find a direction and go . I do not over plan trips, I just ride, eat when I'm hungry, sleep when I'm tired. I don't have anyone to answer to ! I live where riding is premo !SC, Western NC, North GA, TN, The Blue Ridge, Skyline Drive etc. I often pack my backpacking gear and camp. I'm at most a 1/2 day to any of these places. I find most folks I know now who ride are weekender's and fair weather riders all about getting someplace to look cool and forgetting that the ride is what is along the way. So I'm solo and don't ask anyone anymore to ride with me . I never ride two up, both of my bikes are solo.

- August 25, 2009, 13:05:00 PMI'm extremely new to riding (still do not have a license; though, I think I got about a hundred miles on the bike from just practicing) but I suspect I'll us the bike mostly to get back and forth to work.
I do already have an offer to go down to the OPH for a ride with a working buddy - when I'm licensed and comfortable with my skill level.

- August 07, 2009, 02:29:59 AMMost of the time by myself, because I work nights in my part time job and some afternoons in my mechanics job, my riding time is limited. When I can do anything it is usually running errands on the bike(s) or when I need time away from the shop to rethink a problem I am having. And because most people work days, when I have time to ride, it makes it difficult.
