Here is an easy way to have $ at hand... take a hundred singles (like you would if you were headed to the strip club) and go to Kinkos and ask them to "pad" them on the long end, with a cardboard backing... this is essentially making a "note pad" of your cash... tuck it in your pocket and when you need it pull out and literally peel off a couple bills. It works great. they can pad as much as you want. I had 200 singles done once. I actually will be giving my daughter her allowance this way because it is fun/funny.

I think I have a new method for forrays into "gentlemen's" clubs.

The cool things you can learn in this forum that apply to everyday life.

I fear this thread is about to go from a toll-booth to a strip bar, in 3.... 2.... 1....

Didn't Al Bundy use a fishing line to pull his dollar back at the Nudey Bar? Maybe you could use the same technique at the toll.

 
If you're going to do a lot of tolls over a short time (not long enough to justify an ez pass), then take a stack fo 1s to Kinkos and have them glue one short edge together like a stack of PostIts. then put your stack of 1s in the tank bag, peel off as many as you need, toss the change back in the tank bag and go.
Simple and easy.
Too simple, but not nearly as much fun as digging in the watch pocket of you riding pants with the gloves on in the rain! Especially when you have 6 mc's behind you and cars behind them..........makes for a bunch of pissed off people.

er... post #17, d00d!

this is dogpile Friday, right?

 
Bounce, that is FUNNY right there!! I never even saw your post! I read the first couple and started typing away! Ha... like minds... scary. Is this the ONLY coincidence? Are you also dashingly handsome and rich beyond belief, with a full head of hair and built like Adonnis, with a fetish for cheesecake and Pepsi? Damned! We might be twins!

Where did you learn the padding thing? I used to run printing presses as a young'un, and we used to pad everything that wasn't nailed down... money, parking tickets, lunch receipts, all our playboys into one biiiig book. The money was the most fun, girls thought it was "cute"...

I am cracking up over the money pads!! Rose is looking at me like I am on drugs! I was in heaven the first time I rode the FJR on a toll road. That lovely glovebox held a toll ticket and a few dollars like a charm. I rolled in to a stop, popped open the glovebox, paid the man, then put the change in and off I went. On the V-rod it is a pain in the backside. Stop the bike, neutral, take off a glove, dig in the pocket, get the change, put the change back in pocket, then put the glove back on. What a pain. I am really starting to like this cluctchless thingy.....

 
Well I made it there and back. I couldn't find a cheap tank bag, so I got an even cheaper fanny pack thing at walmart for like $10. I clipped all of my $1's together with one of those big black paper clips. Worked reasonably well. Complete stop, bike in neutral, take off left glove (found out on the way back I could separate the bills with both gloves on), hand the attendant the cash, blast off!

Next time I am definitely doing the padding thing though, for the inevitable toll taker expression if nothing else.
