Are motorcycle group rides the best way to make friends or the fastest way to make enemies? In this episode of Highside/Lowside, Zack and Spurg tackle the highs, the lows, and the unwritten rules of riding with other people. From the dusty trails of an ADV rally to the organized chaos of a track day and the etiquette of a local poker run, we cover what you need to know to survive and thrive.
Plus, we dive into a classic "Am I the A-hole?" about confusing intersection etiquette and why being "too nice" can actually be dangerous. Whether you're a seasoned veteran or a new rider looking to find your crew, this episode is packed with tips, horror stories, and laughs.
