So check it out.

You know how motorcycle riders have this unwritten code to wave or in some form acknowledge one another when passing along the highways and byways? As long as I've been riding, this has always been prevalent in all parts of the country that I've traversed on a bike.

The other day, weather nearly perfect--- certainly for riding up and down Lake Road, which winds its way along the coast of Lake Erie--- and there are no small number of motorcyclists doing this same thing.

Each rider that goes by, I'm giving my time-honed left-hand flip, timed with a slight forward head motion. To a rider, absolutely nothing in return. Doesn't the kinship borne on the shared love for the open-wheel, air-in-your-face mean anything anymore?

[I should probably mention that since I haven't had time to get the bike road ready yet, I was in the family minivan at the time.]

you need to wear your helmet so they'll know you are a fellow biker.

the Honda Rebel is a 250, but that's a chick bike, so they get a pass, but yeah 350 would be a minimum

Are there any other kind?

"Yeah, I'll have the full-assed chaps please."
"You mean the pants, sir?"

*Awkward silence*

"Yes."

that unwritten rule still applies to this day!!!
however, during the fake gasoline shortages of the 1970's, tha CIA sent out many (some say az many az a hundred thousand) undercover operatives on motorcycles to attempt to show that only commie pinko hippie fags were able to actually GET anywhere...
since that date, if a certain percdntage number of motorcycles exceed a certain percentage of cars and trucks on tha road, the "handwave" becomes a sure sign of governmental invasion of thought procesitcal thinking...
this, in addition to papal pedophilia, has caused many in tha biking community to "shrink" from indicating tha pleasure of tha "big bugs in yer teeth" happiness that all used to enjoy...

alas...
