I met my wife in Miami Fl., while I was stationed there in the military. When I brought her to Oklahoma (20 years ago) she could not understand why total strangers would wave to us. It is customary out here in the sticks to wave at people as they drive by. When motorcycling everytime I pass another motorcyclist no matter what they drive or what part of the country you wave. Today I was pulling my 5er down to Ada, OK and I passed at least three motorhome's and five 5er's and none of them would wave back. Even outlaw bikers respect other peoples passion for motorcycling enough to wave. Just an observation.
