If I’m on my Seven wearing Rapha and all color coordinated I get waved at constantly. I only don’t wave if circumstances dictate I need to keep my hands on the bar and my mind focused on safe navigation.
Same experience here (but replace Seven/Rapha with more budget-friendly Cannondale/DHB) - and then I noticed the username (we ride the same roads)
I usually do the head nod, see a lot of cyclists doing the same.
