- You may notice in the pictures that Leader and Sweeper are wearing Hi-Vis orange vests. I thought up a way to keep a clear distinction of leading and trailing riders that everyone would recognize. With large groups it can be difficult for the lead rider to tighten up on the fly without counting helmets or having the trail rider speed up to the front to indicate all is good. With the matching vests, the leading rider simply slows the pace until he sees the sweeper show up in back, then continues on his way[/COLOR][/COLOR]. For the trailing rider, he can be confident that he has caught up, and anyone within the pack knows they can fade back if they want to slow their pace without worry of being left behind. It seemed to work well.
Nice....but the faster riders on the twisties always wants to go faster, which I can understand, it's fun, or is it, leaving the slower riders, like me, way behind. I have experienced a group ride when I was basically all by myself for quite awhile. The good thing about that was, I tend to be more careful, bec. i know if something wrong happens, it would take a long time for them to realize that they're missing somebody in the group.
Any group here on BARF that do this on their group rides?
