Congratulations on what I believe is the first wave post of 2009.

Thanks Dave, I like rereading that every once in awhile. I'm going to forward it to my wife, she always gives me a strange look when I slow down or stop for riders along the road.

Good post, Dave. Sez it all.
40+ yrs, and I have NEVER failed to stop for a scoot on the shoulder, even in the cage.

I wave UNLESS I'm rattling along faster than 75. Chop can git a li'l light in the frontend, need BOTH hands. IF Momma is onboard, she'll 'wave' for me.

sometimes other riders think I'm waving and wave back. But usually I'm just flicking a bug or a booger off my fingers.
