Jerry can ride

#1 Post by hondaror » Sun May 21, 2017 5:44 pm

I just watched a very cool video of the jerry can ride, 2016, I believe. Australia, watch it. About the off the wall motorcycle culture. "We all have something in common".

I thought the title meant "Jerry is able to ride" or "Jerry is a riding mutha."

Lol, so did I. I did enjoy the documentary. Those Aussies, a different language down there. Once you put jerrycan together, it makes more sense. Most of us over here call them gas cans.
Many plays on jerry with Sailor Jerry the tattoo artist. Totally makes sense.
