I ride a Harley and I wave.
I ride a Harley and you don't, bugger off.
I ride some other bike and I wave.
I ride some other bike and I don't wave.
I like pie.
I like pi.
Nice truck. I'll wave at ya. I wave all the time. I like to wave. Waving is fun. I'd rather ride or shoot than wave. Maybe I will ride, shoot and wave. Shouldn't be too hard, I used to ride a HD that I could work the clutch, throttle, shift, brake and operate the turn signal all at the same time and still manage a wave if needed.
Man, the older I get the better I was. Just ask the ol' lady!

Doesn't bother me if you leave or stay. I'm just sentimental in that I don't really care what you do.
But, since you're staying, why not plan to make a trip up to Bailey and show me some of those mad shooting skills you possess? I'll invite a few other select guys from the forum. You can show us old guys how it's done.
We can stand around and wave at each other and then do some serious shooting. I'm never too old to learn from an expert.

damn. I never knew I was part of so many communities. I came across a couple guys, one was wearing Levi's (like me), and the other was wearing Soloman hiking boots like mine. Since I learned here that I'm part a of each of their communities, I knew I had to wave at both, but which takes precedence? Shit, then a guy with a beard walked by, and then there were several people walking dogs. I didn't have enough hands for all the waving. I'm sure I hurt everybody's feelings, since I'm such an integral part of all these communities, sharing a deep, brotherly bond with all of them.
Gimme a break. If you seriously, automatically include yourself in a "community/brotherhood" with folks just because you own or do the same thing, you don't understand the value or meaning of true brotherhood, and will be sorely disappointed one day. As for me, I'll stick with my fellow Marines for my brotherhood.
And remember son, I've been your age; you ain't never been mine.
Come on, Fentonite. Don't you know "we're all in this together"?
Geez...

gotta throw my two cents in...
two short stories. I have been riding (up till about 2 years ago) for about 10 years. mainly sporties. it's pretty well known that harley guys dont wave. i still always waved and usually caught an awkward wave back. just a little weird.... motorcycling is a brotherhood. we need to be looking out for eachother.
secondly, my folks live in unincorporated parker. Ponderosa hills. as soon as the pavement ends, I wave at EVERY passing car. 90% wave back. the other ten percent either drive a prius or didnt see me. I mean that literally, there is some guy who owns a prius back there that I have waved at EVERY time I see him. never a wave back..
liken it to an old school way of doing business. if it was a small town, you didnt have to KNOW everybody to wave. that's the way parker was when I got here. I liked it. I continue to do that when I get a little further out of downtown parker. as our communities grow, I like to think that there are still groups of people that can relate. if I were to see a "co-ar15" sticker on a truck, I would wave, or say hi or something. even though i wont know who it is....
that guy that doesnt wave.... i dont know him.. doesnt make him not a dick..
