One time last year on my commute from inner city Baltimore south to near BWI, a motorist gave me a thumbs up as I crested a hill, made my day!
As for riding with other bike commuters, once in a while I'll meet up with a co-worker and sometimes I'll catch up or be passed by another cyclist, but for the most part I'm out there on my own and loving it!
