Now what are you going to do for a bike while you are here???
You can go to the Harley home page and they will tell you which dealers rent for the day!! I have seen prices at about 140.00 per day for and electra glide. Sportys are less.

You can get much better craft brews from the States, but I doubt you will find anything better than Coor's Light or Bud in Alabama. And depending on where you are going, it could even be a dry county and that would really suck!

Can an Aussie survive without beer for a week? We will definitely need an update post jitters.

Contrats on the trip. Have a great time.

First of all, Beer Rules! Don't knock it just cuz you don't like it.

Second, I didn't think we want to kill him. I once saw someone drink so much PBR he got sick and his vomit was Bright Flourescent Yellow!











Aw, those were the days.........

Pete, you could always try some good old Kentucky whiskey or I am sure you can find a backwoods boy will a still in thier back yard.

Heck, since you're coming from Australia, bring a few pallets of fosters with you.

Congrats on the win. As for beer... I don't think you will enjoy the American stuff, even the Canadian beer is only average. Euro beer on the otherhand, now we're talking
