I get what you mean Dragonfly. It makes me smile when another cyclist waves or nods or even wiggles a finger as they pass by. If not, that's okay too.
A few weeks ago, just the day before Easter, the weather was gorgeous and everyone was in a waving and "good morning" mood for some reason. A guy gave me an enthusiastic wave as he waited at the light going the other way, three lanes away, and I sent it right back, ha. It made my morning.

Sometimes on the back of the tandem I smile and wave and ding the bell at just about every living thing we pass (and under every underpass) and other times I just stare at my knees.
Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

Heh. I wonder if people would care so much whether or not I wave, if they knew how many cattle I wave at.

My tendancy is to wave. But, I'm an extrovert. I talk to everyone or anyone.
