The underdog often starts the fight, and occasionally the upper dog deserves to win - Edgar Watson Howe.

You can't miss my modified Jimny coming the other way but I am yet to get a wave locally.
I've had waves from modified Jimnys when away but only modified ones.

Hahah! I almost spat my tea out reading that :lol:
Coming from the SAAB fraternity - it seemed to be only the drivers of SAAB convertibles that waved back,
Motorcyclists always used to flash the light or wave (I know - I was one!) but I don't see them doing that any more - not even so much as a nod as they pass each other these days
IF IT AINT BROKE, KEEP FIXING IT UNTIL IT IS

I nod other motorcyclists, and the majority nod back. Out of habit I do it in the car sometimes too but nobody notices those nods.

Heheh - that made me smile - I caught myself waving at SAAB on the way back from the MOT while driving the Jimny yesterday and felt a proper fool. The SAAB driver must have thought I knew him or something.
Good to know the biker fraternity are keeping a tradition going though
