Ride & Drink

Post by Dirk@Wilbers »

That is why you ride... Cause the saying is "Don't drink and DRIVE!"

Finally I understand... Sorry for the fault, I'm still learning...

So, again, enjoy your weekend AND the drinks AND always ride safe 8)


By the way, what is your favorite drink... In Germany, it's beer as you surely know...

Cheers!

In Australia it's also beer, not sure on the stats but believe the Germans drink slightly more per capita than the aussies but we're working on it :D

Victoria Bitter aka VB is the drink of choice for most of Australia although plenty of others are avalable.

I do not know that one. The most known australian beer here in Germany is Fosters, I guess. My favorit German beer is: Cheap and strong... Do not care too mus for the brand name.

wilkommen dirk,
wie gehst du?

trust me lainie, fosters is totally different overseas than here. they export the good stuff and leave the shit here.

bourbon is also a favourite in australia. though i do like scotch, and vodaka's not so bad. oohhh oohh oohh rum, any sort of rum is good rum. then there's wine, red and white have their purposes, champagne and bobbie loves her passion-pop i'm sure. love sambucca. actually i love liquers in general. chartruse is good. tequila! now theres a fun beverage. but at the end of the day, after long hours at the office, i love to come home to a nice cold beer. preferably carlton draught.

i'm not an alcoholic, i don't go to meetings.

Hey Dirk, here is a curly one for you. I have a 2005 Honda Hornet 900 (Also Known In US market as Hornet 919). I want to raise the rear ride height to improve cornering clearance. It is a linkless shock. Do you know of a bolt on ride height adjuster to suit????

Cheers :)
