hey VFR, ya it was cool riding 9.....i tend to look at the mirror often(which might be a bad thing on 9) to see if there is any one behind me that wants to pass, and if there is i kinda pull over to the right and let them pass.....

Bad Bad Bad, shaking finger smilie)

don't worry about letting people pass in the twisties, if you come to a nice straightaway fine wave them by, otherwise if they need to pass (& they know what they are doing) they will & you should be able to hold your line,

the important thing is riding you own ride, don't get pressured into anything your not comfortable with,

target fixation was my biggest problem to overcome, hold that line be smooth, look through the turn & don't worry about the asshead (even if it's me) behind you.

me 2 pennies sorry if you already knew this stuff

Please check out the Group Ride FAQ

I think that it's more important than anything else to ride your own ride!
