I leave Chicago for a trip to Connecticut this week and, all along the way, I wave to riders of all makes, models, shapes and sizes. A couple times, fellow riders joined me for a few miles or brief chats during fuel stops. You know the drill. Unfortunately, I saw no FJRs up to that point.

So I'm enjoying a great morning of riding and passing thru Amawalk, New York at 10:30 this morning when I see an AE coming toward me. Wondering if it was someone on the forum, I stretch out my left hand and .... I get snubbed! Nothing! Not even a look! :glare:

If that guy is on the forum, there should be some sort of penalty for snubbing. ;)

 
Well, maybe he twarn't lookin' atchya -

I miss return waves frequently as I tend to focus on the road quite a bit - and while I like to do so, waving is secondary - - - -

 
i think he recognized Murph and was embarassed to wave at somebody who who ride a panda :p

i try to show some love to all bikers. they all get the greeting except for one group.

:glare: the ones one the scooters. sorry but i love pulling up next to one with him and

his girl on it. maybe its just me but you can smell the fear and lack of testosterone from them

of course this is my pet peve, they shouldnt be on the freeway. how ever i see them everywere

here in utah.

the funniest one. i was gasing up my truck. went in and paid for it. there was this guy all decked out

in leather. chaps, shades, bandana. something you would expect from a harley rider.

but when i walked out and saw him pullin out on a scooter...i freakin nearly got hit by a car coming in

due to i was laughing so hard and to top it off i almost wet my self.....

the people in the car were speachless as they watched him drive away.

I guess there is no such thing as "too much protection" when you ride anything... :)

 
BRDRPEY, maybe it was the "loaner" while his BMW was in the shop... again...

Where are you in Utah? Near SLC? Look me up if you wanna wander around sometime next week... I was gonna get cdogman to ride with but he's gone and got his knee in a tizzy. (surgery today)
