    This may seem silly of me to ask but I've never heard of "halfwheeling", even though I've been group riding for about a year now. Please explain. Thanks

    when you are riding in a group you want to either be behind, shoulder to shoulder, or shoulder to hip with the other people. If you are half wheeling, basically you are doing just that - half of your front wheel is overlapping with half of someone elses rear wheel (you are beside them). If anything happens and you or they move your front wheel touches their rear and you will likely fall. The person who is in the front usually does not fall.
