    This was a brilliant post Alex, I've ridden a few times with NWB members but never in a large group yet but I'm looking forward to it this summer and these guidelines make me feel much better about participating in big group rides!

    Should this thread mention people using cameras on group ride outs and the use of the videos made ie putting the footage on YouTube or other media sites
    As it's common for the fuzz to use online videos to get peeps on bother

    Or worst if an accident happens on the days ride using the video as evidence )

    I think camera etiquette needs discussing and would support a dedicated thread.

    Ok I'll start the argument...
    What happens if you're riding quickly and in a silly manner in a group and you have video evidence of your mate in front of you (number plate).
    Personally I feel that all number plates should be edited out :)

    Easy one this. No cameras on group ride outs. Have been on a few and have seen things on every one which could potentially get someone in the shit.

    If cameras are use all members should be asked if footage can be broadcasted

    And if the majority say no and the one with the camera still decides to put it on line what happens then? You can't regulate it.

    Yep, been there seen it done it! One of the reasons I'm not a big fan of group rides with groups of people I don't know.

    Unfortunately if the police stop you and seize the vid anyone that's been filmed doing something could get prosecuted. The argument is we should all ride like angels but that just isn't always the case and are you happy to take some of the responsibility if they go down?
