Bikefest and Waiving

OK, so I'm headed to Vegas this weekend for Bikefest (a little debauchery in Sin City is good for the soul). So I'm really worried about the wave. I mean, there's going to be a few thousand bikers down there and that's a lot of waving?! Not to mention, I like to do more of a Prom King on a float kind of wave so I'm really worried about my arm getting tired. Should I rig up some kind of brace for my arm?

You may see a thousand or more bikes. It would be a pretty safe bet that (1) Not one of them will know you. (2) Not one of them will ever see you again. (3) If any of them stood right beside you they would not remember or know that you were the biker that did or didn't wave. (4) If you do or don't wave no one is going to give a do do.
Go and have fun. Wave if ya want to and don't wave if ya don't want to.

I think if you drink more alcoholic beverage then the answer will soon come to you.

Do this: get a mannequin arm and cut off all but the index and middle fingers then mount the arm at a 45* angle to your left fork. You can thank me later.

If you feel like riding around with just one hand on the handlebars the entire time youre there, feel free. But dont get upset at the lack of responses...
