    Words of Wisdom:

    ~ Proper gear, a working machine and gas in the tank is highly recommended.
    ~ Ride within your comfort zone and leave room for bad karma.
    ~ I may pass slower traffic when it's safe. You don't have to. Remember, someone will wait for you at turns, so just relax and have fun.
    ~ I maintain the Pace according to road conditions with safety of all riders in mind. Be mindful of others in the group. Let faster riders get ahead of you by moving to the right and signaling them to pass you. And if you want to pass the rider(s) who are in front of you, make sure to do so safely and without startling them.
    ~ Keep an eye for the rider(s) behind you so they won't take a wrong turn. If they get lost, you'll buy their lunch

    Dang, didn't read this until just now. I actually live off zayante. I heard a bunch of bikes roll past and briefly considered gearing up and chasing 'em down.

      I also would've warned you that BATS just patched a bunch of potholes and dumped gravel everywhere. Hope nobody crashed.
