Im an adult and I act like one. I have a few beers but I know my limits. Nothing wrong with doing the bar blastin as long as you handle it like a responsible person and know your limits! Sounds like alot of us feel this way. Know when to stop or know when not to start.
I can go for months without drinking but then a buddy comes in to town and we down a bottle of jack and a case of beer but I don't get on a bike. Heck we have gone out on our bikes had a couple of beers and know its time to finish the party at home.
Nope - - wont do it - -
To me riding the bike requires my highest standards of skill and attention..
when I go to rally's and such - - the bike is parked, taxi if I have too - -
I drank enough the first 50 years of my life. now I like to remember the scenery and see with both eyes open.Not judging, but some of the guys I've ridden with crash just a little too often.
A customer of mine just went to check out a 2002 Heritage that a woman was selling because her stupid-a$$ husband who just started riding hit an underpass and killed himself. Of course he was drunk.. Only thing left of the bike was the engine. The guy was more mangled than the bike.
Ex-cop, seen too much carnage, telling a young mom her 6-year old had just been killed by a drunk driver has stuck with me for the last 30 years, no longer drink and drive.
