Default Another Waveing Thread!!

I know the waveing threads are getting burnt out but I got one more for ya!!

It was a beautiful day out today and I was driving around in my SUV. Windows down, arm hanging out the window. Being an avid waver while on the bike! I was sitting at a red light when a Harley was traveling slowly in the opposite direction, my hand was hanging out the window when I suddenly had a strong urge to wave but then I caught myself and chuckled!!! Does this ever happen to any of you???

The wife and I were riding out on some country back road and came up on a guy on a minibike going the other way. Shorts, No shirt, Barefoot and had one of them large bud light cans in his left (waving) hand. He raised his can to us so we waved back. We both laughed our asses off.

I like waving, it makes me feel like I belong or something. I'll run out on the porch and wave, if I'm sitting on the can and I hear bikes coming I'll pull the blinds and wave.

Were you in Waterford CT? Yesterday I had a guy in a SUV...I think it was a black Durango, give me the 2 fingers down wave.....I was on the bike. I didn't recognize his face but figured he was a rider.

If you continue with the insatiable urge to wave you might consider getting a Harley stick for your back window.
