I do my best to wave at all of them. The old busses and vanagons get it, but the soccer moms in eurovans look at me like i'm crazy. I quit waving to the newer ones, seems futile! I roll between Mukilteo and Everett everyday on the Mukilteo speedway. I'm the blue 88GL w/ now steel rims (used to be fuchs). Wave and I'll wave back!
