The problem began with a trip on I25 from Denver, CO to Colorado Springs. I was on the highway and a bike club was entering the highway. Everything was fine until the leader and all 40 bikes began moving into my lane. Soon I had two bikes about 3 feet from my front bumper. I slowed to give the bikes some space and the bikes behind me began going around me and cutting in front of me. One bike cut in very close and I but on the brakes. The riders behind me got very mad and as they passed made gestures that I am sure I don't need to describe. As soon as I got an opening I moved to the far left lane and got out of their way. I must admit that my wife and I were a bit shaken and talked about what could have happened for several miles down the road. I would like to know how I can avoid getting into the same situation again. If there is interest I will be happy to post a summary to the net. Bob Burnham ...drutx!rdb
