The only people in cars I ever saw wave to others of the same make in any numbers where owners of Saturn products in the 1990s.

Also, bikers waving at each other is kinda gay.

You would hate it here 101. I basically ride with one hand from all the waving.

Well you guys have like 4 months riding over there, while we are year round. Since I commute by bike, I'm not waving to anyone while I commute, unless I'm in the canyons carvin it up.

I commute as well for parking reasons. It takes me 7 minutes. I still meet 4 to 5 bikes.

We have a very large motorcycle scene considering our climate and pop density.

I should take a pic of our bike nights. There are multiple spots on the same night. Each spot draws a couple hundred bikes.

I always wave in the vette or on my bike so when I heard a while back that Miata drivers do too I decided to give it a try...Miata drivers around here just give me weird looks.

When I was a jeeper I did it, wrangler owners only tho...

Never got waved at in the miata, lots of other things, but no miata fellowship...

Never get waved at in the stang either, tho people always wanna size me up and race. Guess they forget women typically have faster reflexes.

And as for waving on the bike, I'll always do it. We're all brothers and sisters on two, why not have the comraderie and fellowship? I dont see how thats remotely gay either...

I got honked at by a fellow diesel truck today, but the hubby says its not cuz of the truck.

I was used to waving at other bikers, but was surprised when I got my 'Vette to see that Corvette drivers do that too. I was aware that Prius drivers do that also.
