Do you smile when you ride?

Just noticed something:  Normally when I'm riding, I'm smiling.  Naturally, if a cager does something stupid or isn't paying attention, the glare look comes out (in essence..."you stupid jerk, pay attention").

Most Harley riders don't smile.  Any reason why?  Discuss.

It's hard to look like a bad-@$$ and smile at the same time.

Me,I smile ,laugh,hoop and holler and occassionally giggle while  riding.It all depends on what stupid trick I just tried on my bike

I smile, but not always. I'm also focusing on trying to be a great rider. I'll leave the tricks to you guys with more experience.

For now. :D
Turbos, Hondas, 4-bangers, what could go wrong?

it's hard to smile when you are looking for the parts falling off your bike [edit:refering to Harleys!]

and I'm looking forward to "getting my smile on" in a week or two [woke up to 28°F this morning]

We all have our good and bad days, but I like I said it before, there's nothing like a good ride, after a busy day
