Thank you for not waving

[unstuck]

I aint waving to any of you fuckers, motorcycles are dangerous enough without taking my hands off the bars.





Besides, Im usually so wasted I can only see a couple of meters.

I've only been riding for a few days and I have been kind of disappointed in how many people dont wave back to me. Maybe my waves are too enthusiastic... Im getting about 50% response. Better stats for head nods though. Do people not like to wave?

Its because we don't like you

Damn straight. It's also dangerous to put your beer down to free up a hand to wave unless your bottle holder is DOT rated
Someone has to think of the safety of the children.

I've come up with the perfect solution to greet fellow m'cyclists. I raise my eyebrows. Chur!

When I wave and someone waves back, it's like awesome, you rock! But when I wave and they don't, it's like bummer dude, what's your problem...it's an emotional roller-coaster .

But what about tinted vizors? They may think your a rude bastard and start a thread about how hurt they feel.

Chur! Rocking a classic (yet current and stylish) cup like that in one of those would probably be good for your protein intake as well.

I was secretly hoping he was going to try drink it while riding.

I have an internal sun visor so same diff. I think it's the thought that counts.

I am guilty of waving at bikes I pass in the middle of a corner with a bit of lean on. Amazin how many riders don't wave back. Bassids! The ones that do think about it usually wobble.
I think this blatant attempt to unsettle other riders is worthy of a roasting thread.

I wave to bikes from the car or truck, but the bastards never wave back, and it's causing me issues. Just mean I tell ya.

Epic thread dredge is epic.

Waving is for pooves. See post #69.

Should imagine it makes them slow down or worry that something is hanging off their bike, though.

I reckon we should have a special KB wave...

Im not gay, just emotional.

Hehe, come on people, you can't complain if someone actually uses the search function, like you always tell them to, and then finds these really old threads.

I love it when people dredge out interesting older threads. : How else should I spend the time when I'm actually supposed to be working?

And thanks to the rider and his pillion who both waved back very enthusiastically on the road between Cambridge and Taupo yesterday. You guys made me smile.

Shhhhhh.....

We have a special KB wave. But it's so top secret that no one actually knows what it is.
