most ppl have enuf trouble driving drunk on four wheels dont really think its the smartest thing to double the risk by going 50% off on four wheels.. never ride drunk! or even think of doing so! I normally leave the bike home if i know Im going to a place thats got alcohol as i know I cannot resist a scotch on the roxx if some one offers..

I've ridden my bike to crazy parties. When I say parties, I mean, if the party got any bigger, we'd be in the neighbors' kitchens. I had two beers when I walked in, and then two hours later, left, and rode home totally fine.
My trick to know when I'm OK to ride/drive home is when I normally question if I am. I either know or I don't.
However, riding tired is just as scary. I had been up for about 30 hours, but in all honesty, felt ok. Had a 30 minute nap at hour 20. But I was an hour and a half away form home on my bike, and had to drive home at 1AM. I will NEVER do that again. Not only do you space, but I would space out to the point where I wouldn't remember MINUTES. I'm amazed I got it home.
