Default Waving makes people feel good

Bikers, wave to other oncoming bikers. It truly does make you feel better. I just recently went on my first 100+ mile trek and while on the interstate, i got a low outswung arm from an older (50 or so) gentlemen on a large chopper. With me being a new, fairly inexperienced rider, it gave me a sense of pride to now be apart of a near hidden community on the roadways. It made me feel good to know not everyone on the road is of the one percenters.

To me, a smile goes a long way and a wave is like a smile at 60 mph. So if possible, wave to others, you never know if you may brighten their day just a bit.
