I've noticed something about motorcycle riders. Most of them believe in some type of brotherhood of motorcyclists (or something close to that). Whenever I see one of them stopped at a light and another one shows up, they talk to each other. They are usually complete strangers but it seems whenever another motorcycle pulls up beside them a conversation ensues. As someone with SA this would drive me CRAZY! I can't imagine having to come up with something to say to complete strangers just about every time you come across one. Having to make small talk really raises my anxiety level. I'm not a rider but used to consider it before my SA got worse. Now I think for that reason alone I will never be one.
Is anyone on here a motorcycle rider? If so. how do you handle the pressure of having to make small talk so often? If you're not a motorcyclist, do you think the pressure would bother you?
