I saw the previous posting on the top 10 reasons other motorcycling groups don't do the wave and thought I would create one of our own... 10] Too busy fiddling with the fuel petcock looking for reserve 9] Shivering too badly from the side trip through the beaver pond 8] Afraid to let go of the left handgrip in case the duct tape fails 7] Developing a "wobble" in the front end from the collision with the last tree 6] Might be taken as permission for the transport trailer behind us to pass 5] Wiping the June bug debris off our face 4] Cops could interpret it as "Stunting" 3] The BMW and Harley owners don't wave back to a "dirt-biker" 2] Left hand is broken 1] Two words.... "arm pump"
Good ones Some more; - Too busy playing with the GPS - too busy playing with steering stabilizer. - hanging on for dear life cause all the sticky wheel weights fell off at last tire change. - On a DRZ 400- hanging on for dear life at highway speeds cause they wobble all the time anyways. - Too busy trying too catch up with your riding group that all ride waaay faster than they said they would. - Too busy cleaning the slop off your goggles after getting roosted by Husaberger or some other clown, or from being on a B. Helliwell ride :lol: - Too busy hanging on to the left handguard that got knocked loose on your last crash - and you didn't have the stupid little allen key on hand to fix it. - Gloves are now so caked with dried mud, you can't open your hand to let go of the grip. -Too busy fiddling with the roll chart. -Too busy slapping at that wasp that just flew down the front of your jersey. :shock:
wave being interpreted as hand signal hard to wave when doing wheelie not too many others to wave at on single track
