I ride thousands of miles on the roads every year and try to show gratitude for nice driver behavior. When someone slows to pass me or waits for me to crest a hill, I always wave and frequently mouth "thank you" when they pass. They often wave back and smile. That is good for all cyclist. I always try to make eye contact when going through intersections to make sure they see me and always try to be polite. If we piss people off that will make it more dangerous for all bikers. I have seen some dangerous car driver behavior and had close calls!! Stay safe out there!

Thanks for not being a butthead, Dave!
Don’t forget to ride on the sidewalk weaving through pedestrians.
Oh yes. This is very important.
LOL Thanks for an entertaining and good way to teach these lessons.
Just trying to give back to the community ;)
Don't forget to Air your der·ri·ère while pedaling up a hill..😁
Only when there's someone behind you to get the full effect.
Correct! extra points for law enforcement.?
