melly 0 Posted June 4, 2011 Hi peops, does anyone know if as a pillion rider I am supposed to nod to the other bikers - or am I supposed to nod to other pillion riders or just do nothing and look at the scenery and sing along to my ipod as I am doing now - would hate to be offending other riders by not having the correct etiguette Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Guest Posted June 4, 2011 I live near Squires so after the first 10 biker nods, I realise I look like one of them nodding head thingies and stop. Most of them don't nod anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tzrpete 0 Posted June 6, 2011 I find a general or nod works if they don't nod back i think there focused on the road to notice and . I mean just a hand tilting side ways slightly or two fingers to together depending where i am and the situation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
