This afternoon, a white ST1300 was facing west on Robinson Rd East at the intersection with Ferrier St in front of Robinson Marketplace, we were in the convertible. I waved over the top of the windscreen but didn't get a wave back.

Blue helmet? That was probably me on the way home from work. Sorry I snobbed you Gary. My mind isn’t tuned to expect waves from cars  :-[

That's OK. You may have been focused on the red traffic light. I know I would have been.

Just starting processing my Tassie pix, and remembered this sighting in Ulverstone.
The gentleman sprayed his wife's CFMoto in the same red as his ST1100.
I gave them a card with exhortations to join us.

 :wht11 behind me in Peterborough at 5:15 pm this afternoon.

Had to look twice, followed me down the main street and went past when I stopped at the supermarket.  :wht11 stops at hardware store so I went up and gave him a card.

He's only had it four weeks and lives here.

To the red 1100 that tried to get me to pull into Maccas at Penrith yesterday ( I guess for a chat about all things ST) - apologies. I was on a mission to be somewhere else.

 I do admire your lane filtering skills though.

Might be hoping to collect the insurance.

That was possibly me.  If I didn't wave back it's because I didn't see you.  I'll be more attentive to convertibles from now on.  :thumbs
