Once upon a time, some friends and I decided to ride to a party. When my social group throws parties, the beer is usually something that can be purchased for under 50 cents a bottle/can; PBR is a cliche but a true fact of life.<br />
<br />
When we show up to this party, we find a full bar stocked with top shelf liquor and every mixer you could dream of. Hendricks! Grey Goose! Ours for the taking!<br />
<br />
Nine billion drinks later, we unlock our bikes and swerve home. It's only a couple of miles, right?<br />

<br />
Thirty fucking feet from my apartment building, I eat shit. There's no cars in sight. There was no debris in the road, or a pothole, or a parked car pulling out. There is absolutely nothing to blame but the fact I was wasted.<br />
<br />
Scraped wrists and elbows, bleeding chin, mangled kneecaps. I climb up and down stairs with the stiff creaky slowness of a 90 year old man for a week, gasping audibly in pain as my joints scream.<br />
<br />
So, yeah, I still ride drunk, but I'm more careful now. I actually have started drinking slightly less because I know I have to ride home at the end of the night.<br />
<br />
Last night I was out at Hopleaf, I had two beers (they were high ABV Belgians and I weigh 100 pounds), and I ended up smoking cigarettes in an alleyway for about an hour in the middle of the night until I felt OK to ride home very carefully.
