Default Pass a bar??

I sure see alot of bikes at bars on the weekends. Seems like everybody is either going to the bar or leaving the bar to go to another bar.

I stay away from bars. Nothing but drama and money.

Had a lawyer friend who said he had trouble passing the bar... Sorry, could not resist.

I would rather ride most of the day. Park the bike outside of the garage, go inside and get a cold one, sit down and admire the Forty-Eight. Cheaper prices, and no worries of a DUI later that evening.

I never understood the bar and bike thing ....
The last thing I wanna do when when I'm riding my bike is to drink alcohol ....
When the ride is over ... no problem .... but having a few beers then riding home, not for me.

If I am on a long ride I love stopping by a biker bar. But I only drink diet coke/coffee when I ride. But a place with other bikers makes for a good rest stop and then back on the bike. But ride just to go to a bar, nope.

Did you hear about the two Irish guys that walked past a bar?











It could happen!

My bike has a remote control that pulls into all bars on it's own. It then refuses to start till I've had a couple of beers. I hate the stuff but what can I do?

I ride past every bar that I see. Nothing in there that I haven't already seen.
