Just wondering which of you guys that was. :lol: |

I wave at all other cyclists. The ones who don't wave back are simply too busy pretending to be hardcore to wave back. I figure they're not having as much fun as me. So that's their problem.

The problem is you're focusing on the things in life that don't really matter. When I was a kid I had hopes and dreams. We all did. But over time, the daily grind gets in the way and you miss the things that really matter, even though they are right in front of you, staring you in the face. I think the next time you should ask yourself "Am I on the right track here?". I don't mean to be rude but people like you I really pity. So maybe you could use the few brain cells you have and take advantage of the knowledge I have given you now. Good luck.

The poor old guy might be very short sighted like me..... DAMN IT.

meh...who cares.

I'm an old guy on a bike. Any biker waves at me gets a knuckle sandwich. No exceptions. Except the ladies.
Man, it's been so long since we've had a good "to wave or not to wave" thread. I forgot how much fun they are. / Campy rules. / Brooks sucks. / Steel is real. / CF explodes. |

spring really does bring out clueless idiots, doesn't it. I hate spring.

I suppose I'll just take my bike to the nearest junkyard and see how much they'll give me for the scrap metal:( |
When I am driving, I wave to every car that's going the other way. :thumb:
Come to think of it, in my career, I wave to everyone on the other side who are going up whilst I am going down...:cry: |

BTW I wave to ANY cyclist I see, unless I am going down a nasty curvy downhill and I want both hands on the bars. |
dont hate...he cant take his hands off the handlebar for fear of falling

I'd say Carlin's list would be a good start: ****, piss, ****, ****, **********, mother****er, tits.
Edit: Who knew you could say piss and tits? But you can't say *****cat. What's up with that? edit: for those who are clueless, the word above starts with puss and ends with y. |
I wave to most cyclists I see, old, young, fat, road nazi etc. I dont care if they wave back, if they do great. If not I could care less. Just saying....

I used to think a lot of cyclists I wave to don't wave back but I think what it is is that some just keep their hands on the bars and do the little "finger wave" that I'm not seeing. By the way, I love your "five times nicer bike" and "five times slower" comment. Be honest, if you could afford a nicer bike like that guy was riding, I bet you'd buy it. Just because he has a nice bike and is slower than you means nothing. No matter how fast you are, there are racers out there that could hammer you on a $120 Walmart mountain bike. Let the old guy enjoy his nice bike . . .

Just wondering which of you guys that was. And you're right, my bike is at least five time nicer than yours. |
Hey, us old guys are slow, maybe he waved after you rode past. Or he was bonking. Or said "hi" and you didn't hear.
I wave at everyone and don't watch to see if they wave back. It's probably just as rude as not waving. |
