Hehe, Nice Thread kev... Me have anything to do with it??

It's bad, this drinking and riding thing...the two things in live i like the most...beer and my bike...they should never mix, but occasionally it does, and i never have nore than 2 beers.

Beer make's one fearless and stupid at the same time.

Truthfully? I have been wanting to start this thread for a while... but I lacked the motivation!

And then I read of your little slide... and with the festive season upon us, I thought I had better do it. I hate reading about accidents... and maybe this thread may help to avoid one.

I hope it makes people think a bit... a "beverage of choice" is good... biking is good... but not at the same time.

And I can hear Welshie now: "Yes, I agree, you may spill it!"

Ya this drinking and driving is a dangerous affair. The other day I signalled a "turn right" and a bastard stole my beer right out of my hand

On tar, no no. Ok, 1 beer, but that's it.

On dirt, a swig of soetwyn during pit stops and I ride better despite myself. At least, I think so. :oops:

On a more serious note, I never drink when I go to sea, I'm too shit scared. I plan too stick to a couple of beers on the bike. I had a nasty mishap after too much Bells this year. I went fullthrottle into a 90degree turn. I think your eyes still see, but you don't realize the kak wat jy aanjaag. :?

I just read a artical with 3 people drinking and riding got a groot skrik when only drinking one what ever your just below the limit after two drinks you'll get lots of crap from the speedcops.

SO i need to change my way. There's no need to be sitting next to the road it sucks.

:shock:

Interesting reading.

How much before you reach the legal limit?

Welsh have an unfair advantage.

Eeeish! Good thread and point taken seriously, but there is nothing like a cold beer out of a parafin freezer in the middle of de wildt after a few hot dusty hours in the saddle.

However on the road I tend to restrict it to one with lunch. :oops:
