Where you at Mick? Put down that grog and chime in here.
Yo mate, genuine We got another thing over here, it's the biker's nod, apparently it's de rigeur to nod the head sideway's at oncoming biker's, some of them are so keen to get you're attention, and nod so vigorously that they look like they are about to jump off their bike's, they think i am returning this stupid gesture, but i am really just shaking my head in disbelief.As for doing it to every bike they pass,we have a small over crowded country, and pass another bike every few minute's,so that must cause them serious neck pain by the time they get home. I wave at them anyway by just raising my finger's off the bar's, same as i do if when i am overtaking a car and they pull to the side to give me more road

Yes I wave, but real wave, not fake wave. Just a camradery thing. No vote because I'm not sure what a fake wave is.

We got the nod over here, just don't see it often.

Say the word mate and I'll put in a word to bomb the hell out the whole shop for you.

We beat the dawg shit out of you one time when England was a World Military Super Power. You had the largest Navy in the world, and got your arses handed to you with a half dozen whalers, a couple row boats and a buncha farmers with pitch forks and squirrel rifles. We'll send the Girl Scout over for this mission.

Anything for me best Mate!

If we kill all of them, I know God has had a reputation for it, but dose Allah sort 'em out?

And while I'm on it,,,,,, who'd want sevendy something virgins anyhow? They're messy and inexperienced. If I knew for sure I had about four or five, seasoned, rode hard, put away wet 40 year old, not to high mileage bar flies. They'd be a vest on me running into a crowded Masque, I tell you what mate.

Rule #1 - Never leave a biker stranded.. doesn't matter if you know them or not. You may make a lifelong friend.
Rule #2 - Always wave, if you get the wave or the 2 fingers back it doesn't matter, show respect. No matter what they ride. Don't be THAT guy.
