Please, please, please... if you are new & are considering joining the great group of people that always gets together with Joe, realize that this group knows the roads like they know their names.

This is not a group that goes fast 100% of the time, but the corner speeds are not slow by any means. With that said, the collective experience from the regulars leaves quite a bit in reserve so the potential for the ride to get more or less spirited is there...

Yesterdays, incident happened on a very short, slow corner. We can all take a guess as to what could of happened. One thing is very clear... it is EZ to underestimate what Joe means to be experienced with the roads, our biggest worry is to intice a following rider into thinking he can match the corner speeds then be in a world of surprise when the road gets nasty & they are not sure how to react to what their bike is doing cause they never experienced it before...

With all that said... if you do show up cause you want to check out the ride. Fine, there are a few riders in the group that successfully ride with us & have a great time & care less that they can't match the lead group of riders. Your best bet would be to remain behind the regulars & gauge NOT only their speed but also the roads.

Yesterday, I rode with my wife & stayed clear of the lead group. And still had a great time.
