Dan, I’m ready to take this exchange off list, but before I do, some on-list responses are necessary. To keep it readable, your text is selectively edited...
I did indeed respond to Joe off-list. There are only a few things I want to say onlist. First of all, I want to thank everyone who gave me the "instant...

Hi Nat, When you finally get to communicate with someone from Corporate Customer Services, and if they seen reluctant to correct their present policy of ...
Thanks. I'd rather make a statement about bicyclists being concerned with good nutrition and anti-corporatism. Frankly, I don't care that a corporate fast-food...
The problem is that insurance companies have determined that it is dangerous to serve pedestrians at drive-thru windows, and require that the restaurants do...
I'd make a copy of the state law that pertains to the rights of bicycles as vehicles in your state. That's pretty standard nationwide. Then I'd politely go...

Sometimes I solve the security issue by bringing my bike inside the store. It's not so much about the drive-through per se, I just want to be served with an...
Unfortunately this doesn't help us nocturnal types -- its pretty common around here for the walk up facilities to close several hours before the drive thru. ...
