Im happily divorced and remarried my bike. I also have a mistress: a second bike. One is the comfortable wife for the distance and the other the mistress to ride hard for a quick romp. I love my wife and mistress and want to be alone with them. I believe only 2 should share a bed so only go with my bike. Like most women they are jealous of my time and affection.
I never do long trips with anyone else. I will do a day trip with at most 3 bikes. Anything more, sorry mate, you wont see me. That is a parade, not riding. If I wanted that I would get a harley and make a real spectacle. Somehow I dont see stopping all the time because someone must smoke/pee/ rest their bum or is tired as riding. Nor is a committee meeting necessary to alter plans. Leave that for Brussels.
As far as a pillion, I will take my son. My daughter hates bikes. They are too young to have a licence. An adult? Let her ride her own bike. Gravel with a pillion sucks
