Keep in mind guys back in the day running across another rider wasn't that common , you could go all day and not see another bike in some area's . Like fleas on a stray dog now .

I wave on weekdays....not weekends. Too tired holding my arm out.

Out on desolate roads, riding alone, I'll wave. But on beautiful weekends when there are hundreds of bikes on the road I just ask my OL to flash anyone that waves. It just seems friendlier.

I try to wave to everybody except scooters and those can-am things. If I'm pulling away from a light I may just give a head nod. Heck I'll even wave to bikers that I ride by in parking lots or hanging out in their front yards. I just think it's a nice gesture. One time a huge parade of bikers (probably about 300 bikes) was riding the opposite way of me down a country road. I stopped and just sat there waving to the whole crowd of em.
