We need to have lead for each group and the sweeper (depends how many people turn out)

I will also be one of the lead.

Those who have done this route before. I would need help.

This drive is not a race, not a competition of speed, not to show off whose car is faster or who can take corner faster, no drifting / sideways even you are really good at it.

Always remember:

We are doing this on public roads. Please appreciate other motorists.

Safety is main concern not speed. Please speed safely and enjoy the twisties
