Just remember that you ride your own ride and are there to have fun...who cares what the other crazies are doing.

I hear that. The poker run I did 2 years ago had a lot of bikers in it. We left the start with a large group of us. The leader of our group had us running about 10 MPH over the speed limit. When we got out of town, a smaller group of riders blew past us on a double yellow line going at least 90.
I wasn't all that comfortable riding in groups at that time, and it was definately a little unsettling.

The best bet is to find a buddy or two to ride with, and plan your route between the stops so that you can ride it at your pace.
