Not a school night so having a few beers as usual. Possibly riding tomorrow. On these occasions I seem to wrestle with two thoughts
- have a few drinks and sod the ride
- take it easy and enjoy the ride
I reckon it averages about 50/50
Am I the only one who struggles with this?
never have too many that you cant ride he next day!!
Riding with a hangover or still pished is great.
You ever been to a singlespeed "race"?
Many a pizza has been baked on the sun-warmed rock at the top of the first climb of the day...
Just tucking into a nice Rioja, having sampled some of John Thatchers finest, and looking to finish the evening with something French and apple based (Armagnac)....
At 09.30 I am off for a 50+ mile off road all day ride, punctuated with stops for refreshment at public houses 
I hope to be sober by Wednesday....ish 
BB38....Drop of champagne in your armagnac... that will see you right!
Lazybike... will try that! Got a bottle in the fridge I forgot to drink the other night!
I'm very much enjoying a Bavaria Beer alcohol-free lager at the moment.
Yup
Bigbob - now that's the way to roll!
My taste is slightly more crass. Stella and a bottle of gin with a blue stripe on it.
At ssuk I had six Stella and hit a tree didn't even hurt. Mrs ssstu asked if I was ok actually lol 
That reminds me I must get I hip flask and bike mount
riding first booze 2nd,although as i'll not need to drive at all tomorrow the hipflask will be on the bike
Lazybike...
I have just tried you recommendation!
Yummy... Is it best mixed 1 - 1 ?? 
I tried it as an aperitif in a restaurant...no idea on ratios, keep experimenting!
I never bother riding the next day if I'm drinking heavily - hangover + usually early and long drive to get there = crap. That only applies to non-local rides though, it's just the drive I can't be doing with and if there were local trails I think it'd be ok.
Sponging-machine that is the most disgusting post I've ever read on here.

Goes off muttering"alcohol-free beer?what's that all about?"
I like a good drink & I also like to have a decent ride out.Can't stand half assed rides or going out for only a few shandies.So if I've a ride planned I don't drink or if I've got a night out then I don't ride the next day...Simples
Ok I am home
54 miles of slog on a SS after last nights little excess! Feel great now, however the 2 pubs did help
Beer and Bikes.... Yeh what the hell, you only live once - enjoy it!
Fair play BigBob...fair play
