Waving gesture rules??

So I never knew there was a waving thing until Easter when my brother and I rode our bikes to my grandmothers and on the way he waved at some bikes so I followed suit. When we stopped he explained it to me. On my way home I got waved at by all types (sportbikes and cruisers) they usually waved first and I waved back. To be honest it was awesome and now when I am driving my Audi and I pass a bike I'm like dang I wanna wave lol

The wave thing is kind of hard for me, as all 3 of my rides are rides that people wave. When on the bike I want to wave at Jeeps. In the Jeep I find myself wanting to wave at bikes, and my head almost explodes when I see any Gen2 RX7, and if I am in my RX7 and see another RX7 convertible I almost go into a seizure waving at them.

I am such a gear dork :/

The Harley guys don't wave to me because I'm all decked out in my safety gear, with a helmet on, riding a metric cruiser.

The sport bike guys don't wave because they are too frickin cool to wave to a cruiser.

My new rule, I ain't waving no more. I hate everyone! :bigfinger:

LOL! :D

I always liked the whole waving thing and I'll tell you why. When you wave you are indicating that you are part of a some kind of brotherhood. Believe me ALL the cars around you see when two bikes pass each other and they both wave. It's an impact. And they are secretly jealous that they don't "belong" to a kinship.

How often do you see people waving to each other in cars? (rural West Virginia being the ONLY exception to this rule) The only way you are going to wave from car to car if if you BOTH are driving something very cool and very exotic.

I like the wave. We riders are a unique breed and have a lot in common. I will always wave at you no matter what I ride or what you ride, its the fact THAT we ride is what binds us ;)

I farted and smelled it. I'm able to stand now.
