I agree to some extent, but I wont wave if you are a roadie or if you are on a 29er or if you wear white licra or if your bike is more expensive than mine or if you are slower than me or if you are faster than me or if you wear baggies or if you are on a 26er or if you dont wear a helmut or if you wear a vest or if you keep your tools on a bottle or if you are on a tandem or if you are riding with your wife / gf / bf / husband or if I think you look like dwis.

Something Ive noticed while cycling is how many fellow cyclists do not even return a greeting.

I commute to work and often pass other cyclist coming the other way or I am passed by other cyclists.

I always give them the nod or say Howzit, its just unbelievable how many cyclists will totally ignore the greeting.

In other sports if you meet someone who is engaging in the same sport they will generally be friendly.

 

Come on hubbers, lets try and be friendly to each other on the roads.

 

Why???

Depends on where you commute, in some areas in Cape Town it is acceptable to great, think Durbanville around the vineyards or farmlands, perhaps while cruising through Simon's Town or going around the point.

 

But please don't for a minute think that I am going to nod my Kask helmet in Sky colours or lift my Assos begloved hand to you or even raise my eyebrows behind my Rudy Projects when I am riding to Vida in Camps Bay, Cruising to Cafe Nero in Mouille Point or even "slumming it" in Kalk Bay when going to Olympia. Silly boy

I guess I won't be waving at you then :ph34r:
