I do know what you are saying yes, but just because roadies go down hills expecting people to be going at the same speed doesnt mean that they are right.
I do understand what you mean completely, I havent ridden in large groups before, no more than two or three other people, I have read up on group etiquette but unfortunately havent been able to practice it myself.
Yes I am prepared to stay out of peoples way, is it really necessary to stay in groups though?
Yes I am using two brakes, I have done the climbs and descents.
I dont think even if we are in groups it will be too much of a problem, when the group climbs we are at the back, if not completely separate by the top.
I am welcome to tips of any sort, since you seem to have more experience it would actually be nice.
