Drive through? Ride through?

[Disco Dan]

Anybody gone through a 'drive through' on their bike? Like McD's etc?

You look like a pillock, feel like a pillock and getting the spotty faced cashier to understand a flipping thing your saying without taking your helmet and gloves off.... *right Kurfufle*

...I did it once, ordered a combo.... was handed a drink. *woops* ...what a dumbarse... put it on the ground, took my happy meal and rode off..

Any other pillocks?

I've thought about it a couple of times, but figured I'd look like a twat, especially with nowhere to put said crap food after getting it, not too fond of greasy crap down my jacket. I've walked through a drive through a few times.

I hitched throught the Wendy's drive through on Dominion Rd once.

They wont serve pedestrians, I was starving, shit faced and the restaurant was shut.

Ever tried getting an Amulance through drive thru?
There are one or two places it is possible (pending no cars in front of you in case we get a job), the rest become walk thru's.

Can you get your knee down in those things?

I always get distracted looking at the toy, and bump over the speed bump too quick...

do it all the time. uhhh... I mean used to when I still had a bike...

Now next time you go there on your car, reverse through the drive through and get your passenger to order (since the microphone will be on their side)

I used to go through in a mini (one of many i've had!) and if I got to close to the window, I was so low i had to stick my head out the window to see the window!

Yep I have been throu the 'drive throu' at Waitakere City Council's new building to pay my rates bill.

Rode up behind the car ahead of me and waited til it was my turn.

Then pulled up to the allotted area where the pull out tray is.
Turned off the bike and took off my gloves and found the bill and eftpos card and paid the bill.

I couldnt hear a word the lady was saying as I still had my helmet on and she is behind the special glass window.

Paid the bill and put the gloves back on and turned on the bike and rode off.
Never got off my bike at all.

The person in the car behind me was smiling.



Well it saved me parking up and locking my bike and walking up approx 50 steps and then walking inside and joining the long queue to pay the bill and then walking down all those steps and unlocking my bike.

I have in the past (but no drink) couple of burgers and fries... just threw all in tank bag and was away no problem. I have a flip lid helmet as well

Never had the urge to do it on the bike - but I used to take my RHD pommie car through drive-throughs in Germany when I worked there - was really difficult to reach over, and it always raised a few laughs (as did trying to get into most car parks with the ticket machines at the entrance).

Never tried it by myself, that is dorkie!
Tried it with a pillion to carry said precious goods, yes we both ordered a combo, yes they came with a drink, and yes it is hard getting Coke off the whole rear of the bike and your riding gear.

I have also done th efull grocery shopping (two of us on seperate bikes) fully laden with groceries...

the sad part was we had to go back the next day to get some food..



moral don't go shopping when you are hungry

Don't get me wrong, we were doing fine, she had the two drinks in the cardboard drinkie thing they give you, and they were nestled in her lap - away from the wind.
Then I had to break a little sudden and you can guess it all went downhill from there
