I have a great deal of experience with leading motorcycle rides - and I think much of what we riders do applies to car group rides as well.
There only needs to be 1 single rule, and it's so simple to follow. EVERYONE need only be responsible for the 1 guy in their mirror..... simple as that.
I've lead groups of 25+ riders and as long as everyone follows this one simple rule - no one can get lost or split from the group. Faster people up front, slower people in the rear. (it helps a great deal if people position themselves in the queue appropriately from the beginning - especially on bikes cause the faster riders do indeed enjoy the twisties at speeds the slower/less experienced riders could not handle)
There is a PERFECT animation of this concept at the bottom of this page ( I certainly don't ride a Hardley, but all the info on this page is golden)--http://www.sunsethog.com/groupRiding.html
It works so well for us riders, I can't see why it wouldn't work equally well for a large group of cars. - can't hurt to try it. |
Thanks for the tips! I know I've seen those animations before... Must have been like 5 years since that though! We'll keep em in mind for the next one!
