I like to smile and wave at other cyclists, and mostly get a smile and wave back. Sometimes we just trade nods.
i think you probably have the build of the cyclists who inspire me. i am not sure what it is, but if i see a cyclist who doesnt look athleticly slender there is a little part of me that cheers inside. i am less than athletic looking myself.
