I try to say thanks with a hand as many times as I can, if they have spotted me tats the least I can do in my opinion! However I have onto ed myself that riders aren't seeming to it it a lot

I always do it if they move over, as long as it's safe. It's like someone holding a door open for you really, I wouldn't ignore that so I don't ignore when drivers move over.

Even had a BMW driver move over the other day! :o
