How Do They Do It?

Who are they and what do they do? Ride a motorcycle with a large stick up their ass apparently. I have lamented about this phenomena before with this post from 2021. Basically it's this; bikers that ride a certain brand of motorcycle that WILL NOT wave back if you don't ride their favorite brand of motorcycle. While it certainly isn't a majority of Harley-Davidson riders, they are THE ONLY ONES that will snub others. If it didn't happen so often or if it were with all brands of motorcycle I might think "OK, he didn't see me" and blow it off. I  can tell you that if I was in a vehicle following someone on a bike that waved at an oncoming biker and didn't get a wave in return... well I would think that oncoming biker was just a fucking jerkoff. 

But now that I am recording every minute of every ride since my close call on Tuesday September 2nd, I decided to showcase these petty fucks from today's 60 mile adventure through the "Quiet Corner." I have pulled out some snapshots of these "too cool for you `cause I ride a Harley and you don't" clowns. I also have some guys on Hogs that DID wave back. As I have said in the earlier post, Harley's aren't for me, but if you ride on 2 or 3 wheels you get my respect until you act like a fucktard.

Too cool dude #1 just a few miles from home. I hope he looked in his mirror as he went by because my wave went to a raised middle finger salute since no one else was around. I can be a petty fuck too ya know.

This guy on a Harley a couple of miles farther did wave on the down low. Same way I do it with two fingers. I turned left and continued north on RT. 198

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next up farther along north on RT. 198 a couple on a Harley. Couples normally both wave, but here he's as much a cunt as she is.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On RT. 197 headed northeast along the MA border. Guy on a sport-touring bike.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Whew... there were a lot of bikes out today. Next up a group of three riding together a couple of miles past the last one

First guy waved

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Second guy on an on road/off road enduro type bike waves

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The third guy waved too. Even on a Harley.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Soon after these guys passed by, I hit the best part of RT. 197 with lots of curves, dips, and hills through the woods. I caught up to a couple on a yellow Can-Am Spyder going a little slower than I would have been going by myself. I stayed in the left "A Lane" since a trike gets a whole lane you can't really ride in a staggered formation. You'll notice a guy go by on a Harley touring bike that gave us both the snub just as we go by the 40 MPH speed limit sign. At the intersection of RT. 197 and 169, they continued on 197 and I turned south on RT. 169. RT. 169 through Windham and New London Counties is one of the best and most scenic roads for motorcycling in eastern CT. The video is traveling through part of Woodstock.

Enjoy the video clip. My GoPro is pretty old so there is no vibration dampening. Too big to directly embed here, so it lives on YouTube.

 

After that, a couple more pictures. First up, another asshole.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And a couple of good guys. The first one I had to rewind and watch a few times but he does extend his hand in a wave on video. It's hard to make out here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And this last guy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There is a lot more footage of waves and snubs but you get the idea. Further down RT. 169 I got behind a couple of Harleys and rode in the standard staggered formation. Amazing for the next few miles, everyone waved back at us. Hmmm... wonder why? The ride down US RT. 6 heading west from Brooklyn Center through Hampton and into Chaplin at this time of year late in the afternoon has the sun at the perfect angle to light up the foliage. I was going to put the video here, but it just doesn't do the foliage colors justice. Too much work to upload and post it for little benefit other than watching me ride.
