We haven't had one of these in a while... yup, it's a word I use that no one else knows.

If I suggested you get someone to give you a croggy, would you know what I meant? I just used this phrase in the office (for context, to my boss who's currently having transport issues as his car's in dock). He looked at me funny.

He does that a lot anyway, but I think it was the word "croggy" in this instance.

Yup, the next question was going to be "so what would you call it?"

Glad to hear you have a word for it, even if everyone else is going to say "er, I called it a lift on a bike".

I tried to find "dinkie" on the internet, but couldn't find any reference at all to ye old Aussie meaning. Crazy.
