Making a dick (or dickess) of yourself. Have you ever ...

[Grub]

... been driving the car and waved at the bikes without thinking about it?

[judecatmad]

All the time!

(but I have so many ways of making a total prat of myself it's not funny!)

[Steam]

Yep, and the rider even waved back to me in the car! Victory!
Hey, this is a waving thread. I guess it was your turn to start one.

[Smorg]

na I revert to cage status when I get in the car and try and run every fucker on a bike I see off the road, I hate how they think they can just jump the line like they own the road

[Bloody Mad Woman (BMW)]

Yep done that. I don't own a car, and am so used to riding a bike - that when I get to drive a cage - it's pretty sad that I start leaning in it on some tight corners. Takes a while for the mind to get out of biker mode i.e. esp in regard to cornering lol. However one good thing is that I always read the traffic so far ahead - the downside of this is when I am a passenger in a cage and they don't - gives me the screamin shits.

[Highlander]

Yup the kids think it is hilarious.

Me driving a cage is getting rarer, enough so that i keep taking bike lines around corners..... Not good.
I too often nod (not wave) a little less obvious to other non bikers but it is funny how many nod back or just about fall off laughing.

[avgas]

frequently..... why - dont you?

[boostin]

When I was towing my new bike back from Taupo to Auckland my mate didn't believe that I could get a wave out of a biker on the trip back. Took me until the southern motorway, but got one out of some bikers on an over bridge watching the motorway.

[Deviant Esq]

Yep... have done it several times, either waved or nodded at a bike coming past the other way. Most of the time there's just been a confused look, but a couple of times they've waved back. I always feel like a right clown afterwards though!

[Big Dave]

..........no.

[blueblade]

Yeah. Just did a 2 week tour of Sth Island on bikes. Took a couple of days to get out of the habit. Cracked myself up:yes:

Yeah - makes lane splitting a bit tricky though doesn't it!!!!:gob: :yes:

Not often ... but I have been in a car when you have done it :laugh: :yes: :laugh:

[apteryx_haasti]

*hand up*

Yes, I've done it too. Ah well, glad to see I'm not the only one!

[Unforgiven]

I do it most of the time.

[gixermike]

not so much in the Ute...but yep, nod loads on the mountainbike (just get weird looks back)....and then start looking for the indicator switch at junctions....

[yungatart]

If only that was the dickiest thing I'd ever been caught doing!

[XP@]

all the time... i like waving ok!

[Squeak the Rat]

Yep. And remember that jumping on the back brake in the car has the opposite effect.....

hmmm..... the words "sealed" and "lips" come to mind! :shutup:
Only joshin' Jude. :sunny:


As for me...Dick by name.... lol

[bobsmith]

All the time, I usually wind the window down and stick my hand out to make sure they can see, it's great when you get a wave or a nod back... Oh and it's just so much fun embarrassing my fiancee on the passenger seat.

[trump-lady]

Yup I do too. I also find myself trying to lean in tight corners and look through the curve lol...

[Beemer]

I do, and when I am on the bike and see a car towing bikes on a trailer, I wave to them too - unless they are quads!

[idleidolidyll]

only with my middle digit when the bike rider's been a fuckwit................

[The Pastor]

Its all about respec!

[Squeak the Rat]

I do it most of the time.

You're forgiven.

[Smokin]

Yeah, but why don't the Harley riders wave back.

[NighthawkNZ]

I don't drive a cage... but I have done walking down the street... :doh: now I wave to the biker every morning as if I know him... :lol:

[NighthawkNZ]

If only that was the dickiest thing I'd ever been caught doing!

[desmo dave]
