If I understood the original question correctly, it was; have you ever not gone riding because of a hangover?

Yup I didn't ride one day due to a hangover. My retirement party, Friday night stayed up until sunrise on the "Rock", got on a boat crossed the lake in 8 footers got home, kissed the bike in the garage and said not tonight ! Next morning caught the sunrise on the lake.

I agree. won't ride unless I feel 100%. To many distractions (idiots) that can take you out.

I called a ride off last summer due to a hangover.

I had some weird connection to the toilet. Couldn't get more than 8 ft from it without throwing up.

Wife was out of town. That was a dandy.

Hungover doesn't mean still drunk. Hungover means you feel like crap because you drank too much the night before. I spent the weekend at the beach and rode this morning with a hangover.

That's an easy one. Never.

I have never opted out of a ride due to a hangover. One or two drinks the evening prior to a ride does not give me a hangover. Cheers.
