all I can conclude is anyone that rides with me is better off riding safely and within the limits of the law, otherwise they find themselves without a riding partner... I refuse to ride with people that can't respect that... as far as what everyone is saying about "guilt by association", I agree that you should be respectful of the group as a whole and act in a manner that reflects the ideals of the group as a whole... otherwise DON'T be a part of the group.... Now, take it for whatever you want, but you weren't coming across with respect.
