went for a midweek ride with the bmw club by invitation about 6 weeks ago, they are by far the most organised group i have ever ridden with,,
the ride captain wears a bright vest, the tail end charley also wears one and the ride captain points to the next rider immediately behind him to mark the corner and evey rider sequencially has turns doing the same, most corners are marked at two points, some at four points (at the direction of the ride capation), no one can ever get lost, each person is given a route map before the ride,,
no one ever overtakes the ride caption, there is some jockeying for postion (and it's allowed) and whilst they are mostly an older group, the pace was not too bad - nothing like busa speeds but still well over the limit at times, after all they are bmw's.......
