Funny pun on waving

I wave at all motorcycles and anyone else that waves.

Now I don't do the embarrassing, frantic, I desperately need your wave back kind of wave. I choose to do the I am so super cool arm straight out, low arm pass kind of wave.

Only problem is, its hard to look cool when your old, fat, bald, with wife and dog on the back. ;)

Passing at speed with your leather, helmet and glasses/goggles on, it's hard to tell you are old, bald and fat....so be as young, handsome and super cool as you feel. No one will know the difference except maybe the old lady....and she loves you no matter what....!!

I wave to everyone...motorcycles, scooters, bikes, tricycles, cars, trucks, SUVs, semis, gopher turtles. I'm just happy to be riding. Of course, my left arm gets a little tired.

I wave at every biker. And 99% of the time, they wave back. The only time I don't wave is when I'm in the middle of something, coming to a stop, turning a corner, etc.

It's like we are the only ones in on the secret. The secret of how much fun is to ride!

Hell, I think that makes you look even cooler.

If your ridding 2-up it seems like the other 2-up riders will wave back sooner

Funny pun on waving

Every night on my way home in about the same place on I-57 I exchange waves with a dude on a HD that looks like by brothers last ride. Prolly never find out if it is. But you know on the days I don't meet the guy I wonder if he's OK. Then I see him the next day and think well we both made it through work to ride home another day. Don't care what you ride or drive, it's just like when I'm drivin' a big truck, we all wave at each other because we have something in common. MAN & MACHINE! Okay, sorry ladies......Person & Machine.

Life is short so just try to enjoy the fact that at least there on two wheels. And remember everyone has there own taste in what they ride and the speed they go. It dosent matter what you ride as long as you ride........ I even wave to people on bicycles right before I yell get a motor its easyer. lol

As a school bus driver about 95% wave to one another, most likely thinking your crazy too.
The 5% that don't wave must think they are driving a Harley

Wheelie, that barn looks like my house feels. (sigh) A carpenters house is the last one to get worked on.


I'd rather ride than work for free.

The barn was built by my great grand father. It's about a hundred years old. I used to milk cows every morning & evening just in side that walk in door on the right. My mom still lives in the old house sleeps in the same room she was born in and my father died in. It all sets at the end of a winding road that at one time was part of a stage coach route. It was a great place to grow up.......even though according to Mom, I never did grow up.

Funny pun on waving

I wave at everyone on two wheels, sometimes even three. I was going through dallas on a busy interstate and found a place to pull over and check my bag. About that time a brand new HD pulled in behind me. He started to ask if everything was ok, but instead stated, WOW thats a nice bike, thought you might need help but your on a Kawi, they dont break down every twenty miles. We exchanged numbers and ride together often. I always pull over and check on downed vehicles, sometimes it is dangerous, but sometimes you can realy help somone.
