Yes I do. Does that make me "uncool"? Maybe. Do I care? Not in the least.

I wonder when it started? I remember it going on in the 70's.

Always wave if safe, all bikes, all models, all types. Scooters included. I get some of the biggest smiles from folks on scooters! Of course at rallies, or big bike events, the wave thing goes by the wayside.
