Ha ha! 10-4 on that! I think you're talking about "Navy" coffee.

All I know is if I don't get a caffeine jolt first thing in the AM, I'm toast the rest of the day.

Do they make that in the quart size??
This same model is available in 1/2, 3/4 and 1 quart size.


But I agree with pretbek, you shouldn't need to drink more of 16 oz of a "proper" coffee.


I like mine very strong...so I usually add an espresso shot into it. But I wouldn't drink 500ml of espresso alone, it's more than 10 shots!

another stupid question..

My wife and I were eating lunch, wearing textile overpants and with our jackets draped over chairs (helmets left with bikes). A girl looks at our pants and says "hey, were you guys just snowboarding?"

We were in downtown Atlanta. In late March. It was over 70.

Put a lid on the coffee or smoothie, and I'll stuff it in my saddle-bag with my fast-food order, then take it to where I'm headed. And I only go through the drive-through on my bikes.
Hmm... My bike doesn't have a saddle-bag, or a top box, or a cup holder - only the pockets in my jacket. "Weekenders"? That's great - your line is funnier than what the lady in the restaurant said.

In Inverness, Scotland I stopped and set down on a rock that was some kind of ornament, to have a drink. Fully dressed, helmet next to me. Sitting next to the bike. No buss stop in sight. Up walks this 20 year old and asks, are you waiting for the buss? Huh?

Riding out with friends we stopped at a terrace to have coffee. When leaving I walked up the counter, fully dressed and put my helmet and gloves on the counter. Me: Can I pay? Lady: Are you with the bridge club? Lol.

On the road to the funeral of one of my friends, he lived 100 km away,I had a flat. So in a hurry I called the BMW motorcycle assistance. Me: Can you please help me, I'm on a motorcycle and have a flat rear tire on the way to a funeral. Lady: Don't you have a spare? Me: Motorcycle! Lady: Do you have "run flat" tires? Omg... But she did get it fixed and I was in time...

I rarely get comments, but last week, in Belgium, I stopped for a lasagna at a small family restaurant. The waitress looked at my while I peeled off my jacket and removed my separate back protector.
"You're wearing a lot of protection."
"So would you," I replied. "If you ride like me."

I just step on the foot peg, throw a leg over and politely say nope.
