In the UK, I think that 50-75% of riders acknowledge other riders with a 'nod' of the head. Typically, those that don't nod are the +40 year old hardcore bikers. I'm guessing that they think that they're waaaaaay too cool to nod to others.

Don't let people who don't wave bug you. I've miss several riders passing me by because something deserved my attention more than waving at another motorcyclist.

However, I have been practically dragging a knee in a turn, pulled my hand off the bar, and waved at people with their mouths wide open looking at me.

I am too kool to 'nod' to the 20ish prepubescent types, but I do like to give them a thrill and wave now and then. If I'm feeling truly magnificent I'll let them touch my leathers. You should see their eyes bulge with excitement, I am humbled.

I rode around this morning for about an hour (I was waiting for a buddy to wake up so we could bleed my brakes). I must have passed twenty bikes. Each rider waved.

I just wanted to get that on the record.
