You are 5.6 times more likely to seriously injure yourself riding with a blood alcohol level >= 0.02 g/dL and 20 times more likely with a blood alcohol level >= 0.08 g/dL according to Guohua, et. al., "Use of Alcohol as a Risk Factor for Bicycling Injury," JAMA, vol. 285, No. 7, p. 893 - 896. So, whatever the health effects of alcohol, you really shouldn't drink and ride.
