ORIGINAL: krash

I will also often "assist" a biker in heavy traffic on the interstate, if its feasable, I will ride behind the biker, keeping a nice
buffer for him. if nothing else it eases my mind, if not his, that no one is going to rear-end him during the stop and go on the interstate.
I also will block a lane for a second or two if the bike wants over so that he can manuever freely without the chance of somone cutting him off.
+1.....I feel that it's my job as a biker to protect other bikers from other cagers when I'm in my cage. I usually wave or do the head nod so they know I see them, then I'll jump in behind them and keep other people away from them.

I also can't stand it when I'm in my cage and I see other cagers tailgating a bike. [:@] I'll make it my solem duty to get behind that bike to make sure that Sally-Jackass doesn't get a chance to run into the bike while she's chatting on her phone about what Vanessa-Douchebag did at the party last night.

.......Oh, and I also have the "BIKER FRIENDLY" stickers all over my car, so bikers know I'm a fellow biker (even when I'm in my cage). If you don't have them yet, I strongly suggest signing up and getting them (they're free!) and it's for a good cause.

Sooo, should I stop ? When at stoplight, in SUV and light goes green, I pop the clutch and rev the throttle, of the steering wheel!
I also now find the only position of comfort is in the Sphinx! Pax, G.

Ive caught myself waving to bikes when in my jeep. I've also caught myself waving to jeeps when on my bike (the jeep thing). I guess im just a waving SOB.
