Some Riders are Snobby

[HillSlugger]

On the road, I've found that I get more waves/nods from people on Harleys then I get from roadies. Strange... Just goes to prove that it's got nothing to do with the bike and a lot to do with the person riding it.

Where I ride almost all road bikers will nod, wave, or say "hi" (I like to say "good morning!"). I was put off by the guy who buzzed by me without so much as a "on your left"...he was tuned out with his iPod.

I've never gotten any response from a motorcycle rider.

most motorcyclists have been really friendly to us except for the !#@$@ who told us to get off the road (right outside a state park)

I believe the appropriate response to that is, "bite me."

[Bad JuJu]

I believe the appropriate response to that is, "bite me."

Yes, I think I read that in "Miss Manners."

<heavy sigh.....> I have yet to get to wave to/from (or see) another rider...shoot, even the junk yard dogs ignore me! I'm beginning to wonder if the loaner Trek 1220 is actually a Romulan bicycle, complete with the optional cloaking device....now that would way cool!
