But last Saturday, i met up with a few buddies from work to do a short (70km one way) breakfast ride to Jedcherla. 6 bullets and a KTM cruised the Bangalore highway with such finasse that it partially changed my opinon about riding in a group. The feel of 6 heavy machines, moving, rather than moving on the highway, with a rumble that caused a lot to stop and stare, was good fun!
Group riding to me is all about bonding, and when priorities, interests and passions match, you have the basic ingredients for a good biker group. But it is very important to seek out actively, ones who match that outlook before rushing to join a group. Because having the same passion is more important than having the same brand of motorcycle.
I will still be mostly a solo rider, for i value my time with my bike alone on a highway over much else in life, but maybe the seeds are sown for developing a bond of the like of the oft written about brotherhood of bikers, maybe every once in a while, even a solo rider must hunt in a pack.
