Most I have had is one beer and that is enough. Still does not make me right. I have stopped others though and that is always a situation waiting to happen. But much better than what can happen.

Never, not even one beer. Once the riding is done for the day, I'll throw back a few.

I find that the fifth gear whine is not nearly as annoying after a pint of dewar's. Just kidding I've drank and rode once, only a couple of miles but honestly it scared me. Nothing happened , no close calls or ticket or anything like that I just realized how stupid it was and how drastic the consequences could have been

1. There were those times
2. Once or twice or three or four, that's what lead to the #1 answer
3. Sometimes, depends on the situation
4. Not never but will stop someone if they obviously are out of control.

For me it is a decision made often. I either Drink or Ride. I enjoy both so makes tough call from time to time. Never both...

Never. Half of all fatal motorcycle accidents the RIDER was drunk. It's hard enough dodging cagers sober let alone drunk.
