This afternoon I went out for a ride before our guest arrive in a bit for a 4th of July cookout. When I turned on to the 2 lane kind a main road out of our subdivision 2 blocks down a guy on a green Kawasaki sport bike comes out going the same way I am.
there is a truck ahead of me and it is a 45 with frequent radar.
in no time his is right along side of me.... YIKES... he:squid: had his left signal on (left on from when he came onto the road) and I thought he was going to pass me and the truck so I had moved right.
NOPE not passing just being a cool friendly guy.... BUT I do not know him and I am cautious riding 2 side by side with guys I know... I edge forwards.... so does he...
Good grief...
in a mile or so there is a light... we get it red ... I flip my helmet up and say HI.... he tells me he just got the bike and blah blah blah...
I nicely tell him it is not good etiquette or safe to ride side by side with some one you do not know.
he was nice and said OK ....he just did not know....
in a mile or 2 I turned left and he kept going.....
all is well
