I like both solo and group rides. I have only been on one group ride were the riders were not disciplined and I won't ride with those people again.
I particularly like to ride with my friend Glen as the sweeper and me as lead or vice versa...we each just seem to understand what the the other is going to do in a particular situation. 2 seconds following distance and staggered are the two big things i talk about when I lead. Along with trying to let the group know how I'm going to handle particular traffic situations should the arise.
I guess I think that riding in a group is a lot of fun when you are heading toward a specific destination, but I like wandering around aimlessly by myself, too.
