The thing is, as many people have pointed out in the past, BM is no longer principally a dating site, and with a membership consisting of only 25% female to 75% male it couldn't work as such. Its evolved more into a general social site and therefore the whole nod thing is totally confusing for most people, including yours truly.

And yes, the last person to Nod at me was, by the sound of it, a gay bloke living over 200 miles away, with no bike of his own, WTF ?!!?                                                                                                                                                                               

When everyone's decided can someone just tell me the outcome as I am certainly confused now ! Don't want to get it wrong the consequences old be serious by the sounds!LOL Thought i had worked it out but whoops maybe not? A nod as a hello seems consistent with a biker site but what do I know!,

  Got it in 1 Jacky                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 

Dare I nod to you Emzed! Be afraid!                                                                                                                                                                              

Dare I nod to you Emzed! Be afraid!                                                                                                                                                                              

i got a nod and replyed to it with a message and a nod , the lady and i now go dancing together , even had her on as pilly for a very cold and shortish ridout.

so nods are cool in my book :)                                                                                                                                                                             

Methinks i have touched a raw nerve or 2 here lol, methinks some do protest a little to much lol. I feel it is clear to one and all on my profile at least to those who can read, what i am looking for. lol. I am clear on my sexuality you can be sure. But as usual when good argument is failing resort to personal insults lol. Again i was/am merely stating MY personal take on the nod and that i think it is a good thing a kind of thermometer if you like. IE;- if someone cant be bothered or i dont know feels it is beneath them or summat to return the nod then i'm pretty certain i could not be bothered or want to talk to them should we ever meet.I am TOTALLY with BJ, RB, DN and Freewheeler on this.

Oldbiker, you wrote   ''Yes indeed to both sexes omg does that mean. I'm gay or bisexual and want a date? ??? Lol ''   and my reply post was tongue in cheek as yours    So no insults traded as I am sure you will see if you re-read the posting.   However, to suggest that perhaps some may not be able to read!!!!  Isn't that insulting???.....or maybe some can't be bothered to read the profiles of others....who knows!!                                                                                                                                                                             

have sent lots of nods so her are a few 

you no who  you are                                                                                                                                                                              

Thank you for the nod, Kaycat. At least it's better from you than the gay men! Please take this as my acknowledgement.

I nod on a regular basis, male and female, and occasionally get a response.  TBH I aint fussed either way, I use it merely as a HI!  or as a Welcome.

Occasionally a nod has led to a PM and a convo which has led to a meet and a friendship.. ya never know where you will end up do ya??                                                                                                                                                                             

I have just nodded to everyone on this forum. 


 I don't know what happens if I have nodded to the same person in the past.                                                                                                                                                                             

Mr Neale you are just a flirt....a flirt I say lmao                                                                                                                                                                             

                                                                                                                                                                             

Apparently, you can only nod to a person once......but I may have that wrong!!!                                                                                                                                                                             

It appears that you are right Trish. My latest nod to you has registered. My original nod was sent in 2011 and it only shows the last 20 nods. 

                                                                                                                                                                             

Right back at ya david. Thank you!
