No, not really, I'll just give you a sealed plastic bag to swallow at the beginning of the ride, but nothing much to worry about. ;)
Backstopping just means that if someone has to stop, you stop with them, so that you're always the last rider. You'll also be in mobile contact with the front just in case it disappears up the road so that we can re-group quickly. That's it.
