In fact that was one of the main selling points for me to get the Qball, the built in bottle opener.<BR/><BR/>http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2499/1010/640/IMG_4471.jpg<BR/><BR/>I thought I had an action shot on the blog but all have is one of me opening a bottle of BBC on my Fetish Fixation in which I have a surly tugnut.<BR/><BR/>http://bp1.blogger.com/_Iy5WWtdCTX0/R9nxlJraDPI/AAAAAAAABNk/o5DNrEqccKU/s1600-h/IMG_9233.JPG<BR/><BR/>But you forgot another important beer paraphernalia item: Niner's Y.A.W.Y.D.

I guess when you're the champagne of beers, than you can pretty much do anything.<BR/><BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYHM9d-EoMU-dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11639963782149784163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8455317162471408978.post-1340664341129003552008-06-13T08:26:00.000-07:002008-06-13T08:26:00.000-07:00steve,I'm glad you are increasing the utility of y...steve,<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you are increasing the utility of your cruiser! One thing I forgot to mention is that these items can also be combined to make an "ultimate bottle opening rig". You wouldn't want to be shorthanded if, say, you rode by a stranded Hawaiian Tropic bus with nothing but unopened beers to sustain the bevy of beauties. Happy cruising!-dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11639963782149784163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8455317162471408978.post-1348536576233031962008-06-12T17:57:00.000-07:002008-06-12T17:57:00.000-07:00Alright Nipman!
