Title: Polish Customs Patrols (thanks Max!)
Post by: martin_14 on August 25, 2013, 03:18:21 AM
I honestly didn't know where to put this, but surely Jim will reign it in asap.
Thing is, I was crossing Poland and just before the border with Lithuania I found this two gentlemen, who told me that their job is to "chase" :o trucks with goods crossing the borders and make sure all papers are in order. The service has 30 of these bikes and they had to change the rear wheel bearing on half of them because of lateral play. I just thought I'd share...

A bit of an overshoot there, boys? I just can't imagine BJ McKay and the Bear outrunning them  :rotflmao:

I think you mean "Polish Customs Patrols."   Had me quite confused for a while :)

Anyway, cool story!
