I've been freaking people out - should I stop?

I travel exclusively by motorcycle, one of them being a retired police bike. Whenever I pass a car with an Obama sticker I give a wave or thumbs up. Sometimes the drivers look freaked out.

What says DU,is it time to stop?

1. Hmm
I'm not sure why that should freak someone out. Unless, this long after the election, they have forgotten they even have the bumper sticker(s)! lol

Just out of curiosity, what kind of bike do you have?

2. Thats reassuring

Just today I waved as I passed guy and he looked really surprised. It got me wondering.

Since I don't drive a car, I rewarded myself with several bikes : touring, sport, motard, enduro, and MX

4. Which bike freaks them out most?
I would guess the former police bike.

6. I think their freak out is not connected to their political leanings.
Shiny side up!

:thumbsup:
