That biker just waved at me! What do I do!

Houndguy · 06-20-2013, 12:55 PM

a) Wave back.

b) Give him your lunch money.

c) Give him an obscene gesture and

at a blistering 45 mph (72 kph) away.

d) All of the above.

e) Beat up the biker and take his/her ride.

An email got me thinking. Why don't we scooterist wave back?

My reply is here: http://2smallerwheels.blogspot.com/2...-scooters.html

Comment, send love/hate mail. whatever.

Nice blog post! Thanks for posting the link.

Every biker I see extends their arm and gives me a sideways peace sign. So that's what I've been doing back.

We are the only ones in our town that owns scooters, the other bikers always wave at us.

Firehawk989 · 06-21-2013, 01:23 PM

I don't usually get the wave from people on motorcycles, but sometimes get it from scooterists. Always wave back!

spandi · 06-22-2013, 08:18 AM

Wave, but keep your arm low, no "Howdy Doody" waving. (ya don't wanna look like some total geek)

Guest_3 · 06-22-2013, 10:41 AM

This is the wave we use.

sanmar · 06-22-2013, 11:32 AM

I love it! I want to get out and ride now!

Domindart · 06-22-2013, 12:13 PM

Give him / her one of these

Ha.. I was actually telling my wife how cool it was that scooterists in my area all seem to be in an unwritten brotberhood. I must have passed/seen 10 or more scoots out and about in the 2 hours I spent running errands. Out of those 10 or so sightings, 6 of them offered a meep or a thumbs up. 10 of 10 would be great, but we gotta start someplace.

prodigit · 06-23-2013, 08:55 PM

Only place I'm not waving is at the departure. For a motorcycle that means clutch work.

scootnwinn · 06-23-2013, 10:36 PM

I wave to everyone unless I'm holding the clutch then I just nod. Mist everyone except sportbike fanboys, wave back...
