Actually, today, we're thinking about 6 west to Kane, up 321, to Longhouse Scenic drive, up to the dam & back on 59 to Smethport, and 6 east. Might stop at Kinzua Bridge. See ya around!
So, if the other guy has the fingerless gloves and assless chaps, but doesn't wave back, what does that mean?

I tried waving with my a$$less chaps once, at a guy on a Shadow 600. But by the time I got 'em off, he was too far down the road to see me. So I turned around and hit 80 tryin' to catch up, left hand grippin' the chaps and they wuz snappin' and wavin' in the wind, and then alluva sudden I git stopped by a Mississippi State Highway Patrol roadblock.
Well, they couldn't help noticin' that I had removed my pants and wuz just wearin' a thong (it was HOT outside...besides, what's the point of a$$less chaps otherwise?). I wuz diggin' around in my handlebar bag lookin' for my license and registration and proof of insurance when this big lump of muscle in a gray starched uniform leans over my handlebars and sez...
"Boy." (pause) "Y'all ain't got no pants on."
He didn't look amused. 'Bout that time, the thong started to ride up real uncomfortable-like and I had to scratch real bad...but this cop was right in my face. So I decided to punt.
"Well, DUH!" I told him, "and where wuz YOU when I was being brutally savaged by a gang of Honda riders?"
He stood up real straight and rippled every muscle in his face and started quivverin' and tremblin' and then finally 'sploded out with "Hondas...HONDAS...HONDA HOMOS?!? Saddle up boys, we's got bizness to tend to!"
And they fired up their big Fords and turned on every light and every siren and all six cars tore outa there trying to catch up with that poor guy I waved at.
So, the answer is yes.
