Remember to leave some space...

Riders are often hesitent to pull over if they feel the following vehicle may run into them.  May not be as much of a problem with the paved pull-offs.

That was me. My bad if it looks like I was right on the guy. In reality, he slowed down quite rapidly to pull off right there and that kind of tightened things up at that moment. I might have been a little close out of some frustration over the pace too. Again, my bad either way. I'm all about doing it safe usually.

Good on ya for having the right attitude about it zfender, rare these days. That was my friend Chris aka "Preacher", and he may very well have given short notice. He was not bothered at all by it, but I thought it looked dramatic and could be used as a good visual reminder when taken out of context. (all vehicles were traveling quite slow in the shot)

Thanks for understanding man. Believe me, I will be the first to lay into any of my friends if they ever do anything unsafe at the gap. More so, since I'll be on a bike myself next time I'm there most likely.

Damnit zfenderguy! What kind of fun are we going to have if we can't totally rip you a new one for this. You're not supposed to own up to it. Geez. (sarcasm)
