Wouldn't work for me. How bout if somebody waves you return the wave? Does that sound ok to you? Put another way if you're walking into a building and someone says hello or good morning do you return it or ignore them? Same thing.
Back in the 80s when I first started riding there were a lot of snobby cyclist, now not so much. Funny thing is I could've dropped all of them, well except one he was the national TT record holder in the 40 and over category. And he was a jerk. And that's putting it nicely.
