    I reckon that as long as you aren't holding up the works, or creating arseloads of extra work for the minimum wagers (which would probably also count as holding up the works) you should be fine.

    I tend to go thru the drive thru - not on the bike (yet) because usually I take one look at the filth accumulated on and around the tables in the "restaurant" and nearly hurl. In fact last easter we had been camping at Waikaremoana, and ccoming back thru Napier decided it would be nice to sit at an actual table & chairs, but we were in kind of a hurry to get back on the road (took long way home). Walked into the Napier KFC and the place looked like Haiti does now, so turned around and walked straight back out. Ended up 'dining' with a noisy bunch of boy racers at BK.
    Keep on chooglin'

    I walked through the Maccas Drive thru in North Ryde, Sydney after the Manager told me the counter was closed but He'd happily serve me there. In my state I was quite happy to do that!

    I have to ask...........
    Why the fuck would you?
    When you get your order, is it then that you think ''well that was a silly idea wasn't it?"

    My maccas story.

    Was with a mate, one of those ones where you just piss yourself laughing with over nothing, we had had a smoke, pulled into the maccas drive through. (in Hamilton)

    No word of a lie, we order our meals, then the speaker box pipes up "aaaaannnnndddd theeeennnn!!!!!!" in an obviously put on asian accent......Obviously the guy must have heard us, but I was a mess for a good 10 mins after that!

    It's easy. You can even do it with a drink in one hand. All the way back to work.

    I usually keep my EFTPOS in my bike jacket, so I just cram the fucking bag in there till I get to where I got. Or use a bag? Or hold it against the palm and throttle, then putt to your preferred 'Nature watching' post.

    My drive thru story...
    Many years ago,a mate of mine had a hell night on the large,has a snooze,wakes up at around 9am,starving as so decides to head off down to Wendy's,pulls up at the drive thru only to see it's another half hour before opening time....and promptly dozes off...
    Wakes up at 3 in the arvo...a couple of staff members had pushed his car into the carpark...mate walks into the restaurant red faced to see the Manager standing there dangling his car keys with a smirk on his face,haha nice work Wendy's!

    When they first opened up them drive throughs, friend of mine drove his Vauxhall Victor through backwards (quite adeptly I might add). HE was alone and the only extra time he took was scrambling over to the passenger seat so he could pay, collect his order. Sadly, he was told he wasn't the first to do that and the drive through had only been open a few weeks. Said Victor also managed to also McSpew its radiator contents through the new drive through.

    My Dad (the king of no common sense), tried to take a horsefloat through one (god knows why - too lazy to unhitch it) and nearly got stuck. HE did actually manage it (Johnsonville McD's if anyone knows - I right crescenty bastard of a drive through with big retaining wall on one side and McCrappers building on the other). I suspect my Dad had a lasting effect as they later put up a sign saying "no trailers".

    As far as a bike, sounds like all you need to install is a cup holder and long straw (one of those V8 / F1 drinking contraptions) so you can suck as you go. Might also want to tin foil line your tank bag to keep the food luke warm (as per serving temperature) until you can stop and down it.

    My drive through story !
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    A few years back a mate did that and the only comment from the girl after "move up to the next window" was "don't stall it".

    Usually I stop and go in because they fuck you at the drive through.

    After I get home the important thing is to leave the top box open overnight to air out, otherwise it smells like KFC/Pizza/Burgers the next time you open it.
