Curious as to how many people here give a friendly nod to fellow riders. Leave a comment why you do or do not..
Not if they are wearing a bandana and riding a tractor. ..... more like one of these as u overtake them on your screaming 2fiddy Do SUV soccer mums give each other the nod?
I nod or wave to every rider I pass, postie, coppers, trail bikes, even BMW riders (don't bother even thinking about it to hardly ferguson or cruisers). My thoughts are that I will make the effort and if they couldn't be bothered then that is their problem, not mine.
Come on Grey, where have you been hiding? They do it on there mobil phones whilst driving. For this very reason we must keep our distance.
The nod, this subject raises it's head about every 12 months or so. I tend to nod most times, hey, it cost nothing.
I will nod and if pulled up beside another rider in the same lane at lights a will even give a Compliment if I like his/her bike or if I hear the chain needs tightening lol. Respectfully of coarse.
I used to when I first started riding years ago. Most would acknowledge or flash lights, but BMW riders would always just ignore you. Ian B.
