Dealing with and passing groups of bikes
#3
I ride during the week on backroads and seldom have to pass bikers. It could be I am driving too slow to catch them, or vice versa. Probably the latter, squids excluded. When I do encounter a biker or two, I usually just follow at a distance. If they are really too slow, I would pick a safe spot to pass.

If I was riding on a weekend, I would probably not attempt to pass a flock of cruisers. If you butt in, you mess up their positioning. I know the roads I ride on. If I know it will be a long time before they might turn off or stop, I just pull over and take a butt break. No I don't smoke, but flat butt is a common ailment if you ride a CB, any CB. I am starting to believe that thin seats and small hard handle grips are Honda's revenge for Hiroshima.
