From reading another post on here, I am reminded of the issue of rider etiquette. I always thought it was pretty much a given. If you're a rider, then you have rider etiquette. Wrong. Whenever I pass someone else on a bike, I wave. If a cager moves over to let me past or moves just a little further over in their lane for added safety, I appreciate it and always wave. I even enjoy the little random talks you have at the stop light with some random rider. You can even tell the average cager from a motorcyclist in a cage by it. I just wish everyone had this.
I cant tell you how many times I have not got the return wave or have ridden with someone who has no concern for your or thier safety, which is obvious by the way they ride. Thats a lack of etiquette. There are many other examples of etiquette.......what do you think rider etiquette means and is it this visible to you too?
EDIT: One last thing.....do you think etiquette is one of those things that is learned or are some of us just predisposed to it? I have always been the way I am, I dont think it is something I learned....
