on the race track quite often "pit IN" is right after a pretty fast corner and if we're still in the "race line" , we stick our foot out to signal that we're coming off the track.

I got one of those the other day from an old dude on an iron head sportster.

Oh, I am waving all the time. When I can't wave, I ask them for their street adress and send them a christmas card. But only if they wear full face helmet and don't speed. I do that with every brand, be it a HD or a Vespan, and i would like to..... Ah, who am I kidding?

I think I commited a cardinal sin last night; wife and I went for a spin and we pulled up behind another guy and his wife. Nods were exchanged and when the light turned green and we started to pull away he went straight and we turned right. He put his hand out and not wanted to seem like a ***** (but how could he see me) I hit the horn in response.
When I get passed on the freeway (OldMike goes slow) sometimes they have a hand out as they pass and I've tooted, no nod just a toot.

Went out for a short ride yesterday evening. Two people waved, I nodded in return, two people minded their own business, so did I, six people nodded, I nodded back, one person smiled, I smiled back.
As I ride down the road I look over at other bikes, most look back and acknowledge in some fashion. I'm not a wave person, I'm nodding from now on, so if you see me out there please just nod, I think it sucks less than the wave.
This is my first nod thread, soon to out number the wave threads when it catches on.

I put a hand out to almost any bike, kinda feel bad at times for obvious newbies that wave and put their hands back on the bars in about 1.5 seconds or less. If I wave and you don't wave back, no prob, I won't flip you off. Sometimes when riding I'm in the zen, and not really paying attention to waves and such, more into the ride than being social. Not trying to be anti-social, just doing my therapy!
