Been riding around yesterday afternoon, and I can’t help but notice that whenever I ride past another motorcycle (moving in the opposite direction) they stick out their hand and two fingers, the left one I believe (right one’s gotta stay on the throttle right…?).
Are they just saying hi? Insulting me? I’m totally bewildered so I just copy and return the gesture whenever possible.
question from a noobie.

here’s a good article on the subject
