Maybe that's why m/c clubs never appealed to me. Too much forced structure for such a "free" activity.

I'm a firm believer in riding your own ride. If someone is a faster rider than me, excellent...I know the next stop...I'll catch up there, and I'll buy the first round of cokes. If they're slower than me, that's cool too. It about enjoying the ride. I'm not sure why some folks want to make it so rigid and stressful.
This is me also 100% and that's also why I ride mostly by myself...well said
I encountered the same style of riding once and never went back, it's simple follow the rules of the road and be respectful of each others riding styles..
