That finger you saw was a wave, you broke, punk a**, trash riding, wippersnapper.
|
Could be those that you think do wave are merely wiping tears from their eyes at the injustice of such a capable rider on such a crappy bike. If they could only catch you, they would probably give you their better bike, if it fit.

Maybe you were going so fast he didn't see you. Seeing how fast you are.
|
I am guilt of not wanting to wave/acknowledge someone first. So I watch everyone as they ride by for that friendly gesture. Sometimes they wait for the last second and I am unable to respond with my cursory nod of the head. Am I a snob? No, just shy.

Passed an old guy today headed in the other direction. He was riding a bike 5 times nicer than mine and going 5 times slower than me. When I waved at him, he did one of those non-eye contact glares at me and pretended I wasn't there.
Just wondering which of you guys that was. :lol: And on his way back home he is wondering why he rode 150 miles in a straight line instead of a 150 mile loop, so he's just miserable now, hanging his head in shame, trying to get home. |

The last two weekends I've ridden my new-to-me MTB down to the hike&bike trail because it's either been too cold or wet for me to want to ride my road bike. I spend some time on the street getting down to the trail and have not yet had a roadie return my wife. I get a chuckle out of it, knowing that it's ONLY because I'm on the MTB and am wearing a Camelbak. These are just residential streets where I almost always get an acknowledgement on my road bike.
