all kinds of cyclist waves - Page 2

I prefer to jump up on the tank and do a little dance to show my love. It was rough at the Gap.

I actually hate the wave. Sorry but because you ride a motorcycle doesn't mean we share some kind of special bond that makes you my brother. Nope I probably would hate you if I met you. But I do wave occasionally if I'm that bored or if I recognize the bike/rider.

Now one time I was sitting in a turn lane waiting to turn left. I see a Harley coming up and he waves at me. I nod my head some since I couldn't take my hand off the clutch and was about to go after him so had to keep the right hand on the throttle. Then I guess I pissed him off for not waving back then he flicked me off.

That's just the Harley inner bad(i take it up the)ass attitude that comes with buying them.

I saw a guy on a chopper pull the leg thing today. Quite amusing. Sometimes I will use the hardcore noobie wave.

And I draw the line at no waving at the flat board scooter/spree things. NO WAVY!!

Hey Chris, I waved to two of those flat board scooters today.

The were being ridden by two beautiful buxom young ladies wearing tanktops

I'm just glad I didn't hit the curb watching them

I don't wave at scooters,around here they are probably drug dealers or alcoholics who lost their licenses. I normally wave with a "Zieg Heil" style wave or the two fingers together "shooting a gun" style.

i perfer the newbie wave, perfected by nighthawk

My waves depend on what I'm doing at the time... if I'm just cruising through town I'll raise my hand up about shoulder high and to the side and give the peace sign...

most other times it's the arm extended 45* down to the side peace sign.

unless it's for a forest green station wagon with the watch for bikers bumper sticker in the rear window that tried running me off the road... for him... it's a special wave... I pull up next to the drivers door... I take my right leg and pull it up into me... then with one quick motion... kick my leg out with enough force to leave a good size 12" impression on his door... then to finish my move... I give the bird, and twist the throttle.
