Waving - the neverending saga (multiple threads merged into one)

[Meanie]

Hmmm To wave or not to wave, to nod or not to nod That is the question
What is so hard about the wave it does take an extreme amount of energy and concentration


Nobody is too cool to wave

Whats the big deal its a Hello when it cant be heard
So wave dam it wave

[thehovel]

I still believe in the Code of the Road, So if your bike DOSEN'T handle like a wheel-barrow and you are on the open road WAVE!!!!! I will continue to check your bikes handling ability. Regards Richard

The waving thread comes up every week like Lotto too....and it seems only sportsbike riders bring it up,if there is a problem I certainly know where to point the finger.

Yeah, I've been involved in this discussion a couple of times now. Someone usually ends up getting pissed off then it's been fun to wind them up a bit more But it's got a bit monotonous for me now and I can't really be bothered anymore Maybe if another fight starts, I might come back for wee play

In the meantime wave if you want, don't if you don't want, but I'll keep waving :spudwave:

I wave to everybody cos i got no mates, strange thing is, when i get to where im going i still got no mates.....................

The way I see it, when someone waves to me and I miss waving back I feel bad.

So when I wave to another biker and they don't wave back I don't feel bad, I just think they must be feeling bad as they missed the opportunity to wave to a fellow biker.

Me too,it's bizzare so many people get wound up about it,what the hell - it's got nothing to do with riding a bike.I guess it's a social thing,and I'm not into any social activities at all.

I just went from christchurch to dunedin and back, and I found it was the hunched over supersports riders who didn't wave.

I must have seen over two hundred riders and only a few didn't wave though. We're so friendly in the south you know...

[SPman]

Sometimes I wave
Sometimes I don't
But I dont stress about it!
Lifes not gonna end if no one waves back!

If your Wave / Don't Wave thought process goes a bit like this...

"Oh boy! Another biker coming my way!"
"Guess I better break out a wave..."
"But wait! What if they don't wave back?"
"I could look like a total retard"
"..."
"They're getting closer!"
"Um... I'll wave... no wait for the other dude to go first..."
"..."
"He's not waving..."
"..."
"Oh fuckit, this is stupid... just wave dammit"
"But maybe they'll think I'm someone they know..."
"Alright, that's it I'm waving"
"..."
"Only 20 metres left to go. Why won't they wave to ME???"
"Here goes... I'm waving! I'm really waving!!!"
"Wh~ where'd the road go! Arrrgh..."

...you need to think less ~ lay of the green stuff and hopefully the paranoia will back off a bit too...

I'm fair, I ignore everyone.

You don't HAVE to nod or wave to every fucker on a bike sheeet!

Check your post count!

I wave to everything - but I ain't waving to YOU , cos prolly I hate you. I'm waving to your BIKE, cos I like machinery more than people.

Doubt it - F/F was responding to my burley...I didn't even have to post on the thread before he started snapping.Who's pulling who's chain - those who care about waving,or those who couldn't care less?
