I still hearing from the guys on the vtx site sending in money to help. I think its just the fact that when you ride you are just open to the world around you . you see everything differently The road ,the trees the mountains everything and life becomes more so you want to share what God has given we just see life with clear vision , whats important whats not Family,Friends, Health and the bike

There was a thread a few months back asking everyone whether or not they routinely waved with the "low hand" wave when meeting fellow motorcyclists. I must admit, at the time I really did not get it. Why would total strangers greet each other almost out of reflex? After the events of the last few days it is clear. No matter who you are or what you ride, as an avid rider you belong to a brotherhood, a family if you will. I do throw the "low hand" at every fellow rider I meet, now more than ever because that rider I meet may very well be the rider that offers to help or one day will require some help. I am proud to belong to such a family.

I am proud to belong to such a family. we have had a few threads on the cafe about this same subject...and all jokes aside..."low hand" wave, "goldwing" wave (high hand), "med hand" wave, "peace sign" wave, "pointing" wave, etc...doesnt matter to me. i wave at everyone and if they wave back, it makes me smile. this whole situation does put a little more perspective on the fact that there are some great people that ride. doesnt matter what you ride either...as stated...help others. never know...could be you needing help yourself in the future.

Paypal sent (what I could) I've not posted in a long while and havent kept up much on posts as i'm mending from wrecking in october about 4 weeks after becoming a widower, bikes in the process of being repaired at least. When it rains it pours but I figure the good Lord left me here for a reason.

Back to the wave thing. I find that when I'm riding a naked bike it's easier to do the 'low wave' due to wind pressure. On the 'Wing with the windshield and fairing a 'high wave' is easy and more convenient. At speed on my Silverwing the 'low wave' works best. For those of you who won't return a wave to a scooter rider, pizzonya.

I have no problem giving the "low hand" on the GW. But I do go with the "high hand" when there is an obstruction like a median divider, bridge railing, etc. And I'm with Paul, don't wave.... Hell with ya!
