spurred on by the other thread……i love a good drink.
i might go a couple of weeks without, but when i have a drink i love a proper session.
i love the atmosphere in a nice pub, and the craic with mates and likeminded folk.
good ale and good pubs are awesome…….. 8)

I’m with you Brother. Don’t do it enough though.

..not half!

I’m in!

Yes I enjoy drinking. Did the Otley Run in Leeds yesterday for my birthday, it was awesome 😀

me too………………………………………………….. 🙂

Oh yes! 4 days of San Miguel in the Spanish sun for me coming up this week 🙂

I FEKKIN love tea….

Got to be a ‘drinking pub’ not some half hearted effort that mainly does food while ale is just an after thought. A dying breed.

Waves hand in the air.
Shame the pubs are so expensive.

Consume a fair amount of wine at home, and enjoy a glass or three of wine / beer / cocktails of a night out….

Proper drinking pub with mates and lots of mtb stories flying around!

Don’t do it enough though.

Yup. Classic binge drinker too here 😀

This month I went about 10 days without a drink as I was ‘training’ for the Tough Mudder.

That is the longest I have ever been without a drink since about 16-17 years old (now 38).

Although when I say I went 10 days without a drink, that doesn’t include the one evening when I had 4 bottles of Desperados and a big Leffe Brun 😉

Drink most nights of the week. Just a couple of ales / half bottle of wine, large glass whisky. Can’t be doing with binge drinking though.

Ah, the Otley Run – takes me back a few years!! I always struggled to leave Woodies due to the great Ales, and Barmaid with lovely Jugs!!’

I love a drink for 6 months of the year,zero for the other 6 .
It works for me 🙂

I enjoy a nice gin & tonic.

…I think I need to strike a healthy balance between this thread and the other!

😳

Nope. Rarely ever bother.

I enjoy drinking beer. Used to get hammered on Red Wine but stick to Real Ale in the winter now , Lager / Cider in the summer.
Only on a Fri or Sat , and none if riding the next morning.

Yes indeedy.

Real ales for me, I love the stuff. Love drinking me.

Love it… maybe a bit too much.

In fact I’m off to a mates in 5 minutes to indulge in bike maintenance and beer! 😉

Visit our local almost every Friday night, meet up with my brother and a few friends. We lean on the bar drink too much quality ale, eat pork scratchings and talk absolute rubbish. Perfect antidote to a week at work.

I’m on both threads. Yes, i do love a night out drinking too; now that I’ve got a grip on it I love a few beers in the pub with friends, laughing out loud, taking the P and all that.

I always struggled to leave Woodies due to the great Ales, and Barmaid with lovely Jugs!!’

A bit ashamed to say I didn’t actually have any ale, lager and shots all night 😳

On hot port number 2 of the evening… 😀

Must admit, I’m a bit of a jakie.

Otley Run on Lager and Shots?? Now I feel really old!!

I’m with you all – but really ton, you need to increase the frquecy from 2 weeks

Yup – love a good drink with mates.

yeah… Love it having a glass of red now, But ale is were it is at for me. Never better after you have done something to deserve it. I think Yunki said something profound, about drinking on the the other thread, but of course I have forgot it already 😉

Not really any more to be honest, the odd blow out on a works do and that’s it bar maybe a glass of Rex a couple of times a week

I pure love the bevvy

Yep i like a beer i only drink friday to sunday now which works for me but holy sh** am i ready for one by friday !!

I’m with you all – but really ton, you need to increase the frquecy from 2 weeks

last drink was 2 weeks ago, up the lakes with the lads.
barmaid at the pub at glenridding told me that over the 2 nights the four man round i was in did 28 rounds of helvelynn gold…. 😯

Otley Run on Lager and Shots?? Now I feel really old!!

haha I don’t really like session drinking on ale, makes me feel too full and always seems to give me the shits.

No, don’t drink alcohol at all.

Absolutely! What’s the point of doing things like cycling it it doesn’t enable you to enjoy some of the nicer things in life. You’ve got to feed the soul as well. One thing I miss about summer riding is having a blast round Ambergate, Derbyshire after work and having a pint of decent ale and proper pork pie at the Hollybush. Roll on the summer!

Went out to a good pub and drank good beer last Sunday. It was for the first time in ages, sat there with some old mates and had a good time. It cheered up one I particular whose misdus as knocked off her bike a few weeks back. We are going to do it more often now.
