@bikepedantic Small club recognizing each other. Prius owners would do this too when hybrids were new.
@bikepedantic You don't do the nod when passing another person on a bike going the other way? I always do and it's generally returned.

Also just remembered this old WA Bikes piece https://wabikes.org/index.php/2015/05/31/waveback-washington-make-first-month-friendly/. #walking #waving #WaveBack #friendly #friendliness #greeting #cycling
@bikepedantic Duck tours too, although they count as boats I guess
