Waving is Annoying

What's with other bikers waving at other bikers all day long. I just got my bike in January and every one that passes me in the opposite lane waves as they go by. There's a lot of bikes were I live and if I had to wave at every happy go lucky S.O.B on a bike my arm would fall off. Besides I am too busy actually riding my bike to take my hand off the handle bar. It's so bad they wave from the opposite free way. Hell I even had a guy on a scooter wave at me. I think I will just start giving people the bird until this nonsense stops. Who started this waving anyway.

I think its kinda cool, especially when the other rider is not on a HD manfactured product. You have to admit, (all) motorcycle riders are still a minority among cagers; its kinda nice to know someone can see you. The other day, a guy on an orange V-Rod waved, flipped a u-turn, and then jokingly dragraced me across an intersection by my house.... I was riding my son's minibike down to the gas station to fill it up! HaHa! (He won, in case anyone's wondering)

We wave to other bikers. I think it makes cagers realize that motorcyclists are happier than they are because we as bikers share the sense of freedom and enjoyment that we experience on a bike.

Here's a little History and information about the "Biker Wave". This will help you to understand better why some do and some don't.
