I know what you mean, some days everyone will nod back, others not single returned nod. I've completely given up with mopeds - I have NEVER had one return a nod. Learners can be as bad, but I give the benefit of the doubt as some of them do

Learners can be as bad, but I give the benefit of the doubt as some of them doThe other thing, someone with L plates on is obviously not going to be as competent as a trained rider, so perhaps they are spending too much time focusing on what could potentially hit them rather than making friends. Don't get me wrong, I always returned a nod when I had L plates on, but I would let the 'big biker' initiate it always. Now I'm a fully fledged member of the 'big bikers society' I nod at anyone and everyone, even the t-shirt wearing suicide mopeds.
Don't get me wrong if I come across a bike stopped I will give assistance if required - even to a dickhead

All because of my partner. Madam is a fairly well known BBC presenter/journalist and the guy with the puncture got a little starstruck and couldn't help himself chatting her up - and completely ignored me fixing his bloody bike! Even after his tyre was inflated and I advised him to get going to a garage he shook HER by the hand and thanked HER for helping him out. I've got used to becoming invisible when she's recognised but this guy was just a little bit bloody ungracious! What brotherhood!
SOO... who is she??
Quote from: Skippernick on 20 May 2013, 05:58:31 pmSOO... who is she?? Sorry, not telling. Don't get excited, she's employed for her brains rather than looks (that what she says) She presents science type stuff and never appears on anything as a guest celeb, too brainy. No, not that Vorderman airhead I might add, (I can't stand that woman). It would be fun to see you lot try and guess all night but I'm not revealing her ID. She loves bikes and bikers so I will bring her along with me to a foc u gathering one day in the future.lol.
