    So.. for an overnighter, has anybody ever carried a small esky on a bike?

    If so what make etc. Doing an overnighter soon and would like to take some wagyu steak and a cold beer.

    Cheers

    On our 2 trips to the Cape, JollyRoger always had a small supply of cold Coke in his nice little 6 pack esky that fitted well in one of his panniers. Bloody life saver it was.:thumb

    Wagyu - your going to cook wagyu on an open fire???? With no heat control. And are you going to eat it off a plastic or metal plate while sitting on a log drinking beer - please please say this isn't so.

    My butcher was selling Wagyu for $99.50 a Kilo today - ON SPECIAL

    This same butcher wanted $115 kilo for Whale and $75 for dolphin - outrageous. So I went to springvale and picked up a nice bit of cat mince for $12.50. Made up some rissoles and am cooking them as we speak

    I like to mince alot of game meat, but have never minced a cat before. What does it taste like?:scratch
    Kinda like a butcher I used to go to and ask for dog bones. He would always say, "sorry mate we only have bones from cows here"
