I mean when you are riding with others, not after leaving a bar! Conventional wisdom says that the best way to ride in a group is to do so in a staggered formation. The goal of staggered group riding is to take up less space on the roadway, while allowing for ample braking distance between each motorcycle. Using the left and right tire tracks within a lane allows a tighter formation, which also prevents other vehicles from wandering into the group.
