Bike on a beer can on a bike.

Fun fact: Radler is the Bavarian dialect word for Radfahrer (“cyclist”)

Bikes and water...but only because beer makes me too bloated and gassy to pedal!

[–] Evkob@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

If beer makes you bloated, that's why they invented radler! 😉

Water is always a winner, though.

Is there a craft beer Lemmy?

[–] Evkob@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

If there is, sign me up! For the size of my home province, we're decently spoiled with craft breweries.

I didn't expect such a killer rebuttal, fair point.

There definitely was a joint or two involved on that ride, but the beer can looks better for pictures!

I love a radler. Also, this is one of the things I really miss about living in Iowa - the organized beer rides and brewery bike tours were fantastic, you could do one practically every weekend in the summer.

Now I understand why I prefer radlers. Life makes so much more sense now =).

I'm more of a joint person myself, but great argument there, I can't possibly refute this.

Honestly though for longer rides or bike tours, I love a good vape pen. It's the only time I ever buy them, you just can't beat the convenience while on a bike.

That's looks really chill~ Don't drink and drive but yes it looks pretty nice. Cheers

If you want to continue drinking in your life. I advise against working for the LCBO or any liquor store

[–] Evkob@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ok I'm curious, why do you say that?

[–] rms1990@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If your ever bored and want to see the hell liquor store employees deal with more than any other retail store, go hang out at a liquor store first thing in the morning, or after lunch.

[–] Evkob@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Oh, in that sense. I get you. I used to work in an opioid addictions clinic, so you can say I have a pretty decent idea of what the lineup at the liquor store looks like at open. It can definitely get to you, I didn't last more than a couple of months at that job. Addiction is a hell of an illness.
