That's similar to my views on morning after driving, I don't mind driving the van but I'm not happy riding the bike when I'm still pissed. I'll ride the bike pissed if I have to to get home but it's not an everyday thing iyswim. -- Andy Bonwick ZX9RE1 BOTAFOT#22,BONY#22,MRO#22,IBW#12,UKRMFBC#6,UKRMRM#4 BOB#7,BOTAFOF#4398723498723.3,Mirtth#30,FTB#2<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: Alcohol Breath Tester

It's even easier than that. Take _one_ drop of alcohol, and I don't go near the bike for twelve hours.

But the other night, I was out on the piss until the early hours and drove to Sierra Nevada the next morning at around 8. After about 10 minutes driving, I realised I was still pissed.

You have only yourself to blame. Although The Voices are screaming "Platypus" at me for some unknown reason.
