Just don't acknowledge them unless they wave first. Then just kind of growl at them.

From St.George west and then back to St George, Forget the "Wave". Your arm will get tired.

If this is a serious question it means you've never been to a bike run. No one waves at these things. There are just too many bikers and it really isn't safe. Believe me; you will have more important things to keep your attention then waving. Should be lots of scantily clad babes for instance.

If you do the float wave, pictures will be taken and posted on this site. I am charging the camera battery as I type. By the way, Vendor Village is being set up and I am practicing drinking beer already.

Ladies and Gentlemen, it is very sad that y'all think so lowley of me to believe that this is a real question. I mean, do you really think I would rig up a brace to wave to everyone? That really hurts man, really hurts.

I believe that waving with *** less chaps is often referred to as "mooning"

Am I supposed to wave my hand or something between my legs?
