Beer. Or tea and cakes, depending on time of day. And chips. Always chips.

"Roadies to be Cheerful ... one, two, three".
Damn. That would be a problem.
One solution: Cycle traffic counts could be carried out and signs posted indicating whether the levels of cycle traffic were sufficiently high that nodding or waving would only be required between cyclists of a similar, easily identifiable, sub-type. That way most people would get a nod (tall bike riders, velomobilists etc. might miss out). Some sort of cycling thug army would be required to dish out beatings to ensure compliance, although that's just my solution- less evil types could perhaps think of a nicer way to go about it.

Unlike with motorists, speed limits are targets for cyclists
.I used to enjoy my old commute....fractionally breaking a 40mph speed limit first thing in the morning sent tears of adrenalin to my eyes....shame I had to go back up that hill in the evening.

Mudguards of an approved type extending down to one hand (as used in equine measure) height from the road surface.
