There is, unbelievably, a subject more contentious in cycling circles than that of wearing a helmet... it is the simple act of waving. VecchioJo takes an unexpectedly deep dive into waving etiquette... cycling

There is, unbelievably, a subject more contentious in cycling circles than that of wearing a helmet... and ironically, for all of its friendly intentions, is the one most likely to lead to fisticuffs.Some people get very very angry about waving. Or to be more precise, not waving, and even more specifically, not being waved back at.

I have been very ostentatiously waved at, most certainly performed to make a point, and it looked a little… odd.

One of the things that interests me most is: when is The Waving supposed to start? If you live in a large urban area or have a daily cycle commute then waving at all other cyclists on the road is going to be impractical, dangerous and just a bit bloody weird. For me, the muted recognition towards other people pedalling starts at the traffic lights where suburbia finally and suddenly gives way to country lanes. In the other direction, it’s when the meandering back streets finally reach the road that strikes up towards the top of the first hill. Within those imagined boundaries, there’s too much going on to bother with any pedalling platitudes.
