Rant -- "Bank Drive-thru is for motorized vehicles only!"

Ah, ha! Thanks for following up, Mr. Silver.

I still think all drive-thru's should be converted to nice, shady rest spots with ice cream and coffee stands with a walk-up windows only.

I decided to give it a try the other day at my local bank. Pedaled up to the drivethru and the woman happily greeted me and took care of my banking for me. Thumbs up to Webster Bank!!

I agree on the oil hazard. That's much more worrisome than cars at my credit union. So it's laziness, eh? Good to know.

Keep in mind that concrete is more easily cleaned than asphalt. Most fast food drive throughs are asphalt. So, it may not be just laziness, but also practicality.

When I use the drive-thru and a pooch is in the truck the teller will give her a dog biscuit
Anywhere is too far from here to use the drive up while on my bike

Oh, it's concrete, all right, under a roof-thingy. And hasn't been cleaned in years, I'd bet, now that you point it out. It's bad enought when it's dry, but that oil spot is deadly when rain blows in.

I've learned to avoid it, but I really don't like the hazard there.
