i had actually read the whole article and thought it was very well written and well thought out. i know a bunch of people that ride who think that one or two drinks wont affect their riding abilities and yet they are the ones going to jail for dui's or worse: going to the hopital's icu. so then next time you see a buddy or somebody else that has been drinkin, please do us all a favor and take their keys!!!!!!! They may get mad at you, but atleast they will live to ride another day.......

 

+1. That was one of the most intresting articles I have read in a long time.

 

Best article I've ever read.

 

Good read, the best thing I probably took out of it, that I hadn't heard before, was that you are worse off after you "sober" back up, than when you were drunk.

 

great post!

 

That was a great article. Very informative. It was fun to read about them pouring their own drinks and then drinking from the bottle.

 

Nice post I don't dirink and ride anyway but it was very interesting to see how not a lot to drink effects your judgement a lot! Thanks for the post

 

It amazes me that a bar can have a 'bike night' or a 'biker bar' even exists.

 

Great article. Some years back one of the Cycle magazines had a similar article, and came up with exactly the same results. Why anyone would think it's okay to drink and ride / drive / fly is beyond me, but people do. Many have given me the old, "I drive better after a few drinks" routine. They need to read this article, but most likely won't.

Thanks for posting it.

 

Great article. I have a bandmate that got a Dui on his motorcycle about five years ago (well before I started riding), and I though it was a drag. Now as a rider, I realize he was out of his f_cking mind to be on a bike after drinking! Stupid jerk!! That article mentioned that 66% of the solo accidents that happen in Cali invovle alchohol...amazing.
