General Cycling Discussion - We all need to drink beer!

Just as the thread says, i feel that everyone who rides needs to drink beer. It makes you able to talk to others about cycle safety, and to prech the benefits of the sport to non riders with a comfortable shroud!! Even MERTON can sound reasonable when you have had a few(Just playin, buddy)!!!!!

Also causes families to break up, lose your good job and get a bad low paying one, health problems, maybe even get killed due to impairment or running ones mouth too much. Yep youll have lots of friends until you lose your good paying job then they are gone. The list goes on and on. Believe me I know.

Yep. One beer can ruin your whole life.






That's why i buy at least a sixer at a time.

when did we switch the topic from beer to self-control? :)

I was hoping to steer this one to the good side of beer, the one for people with control, where it is a lot of fun!

Nothing like a cold beer or two after a long, hard ride.

I usually quit drinking for a month or so over the winter to help keep my weight down and prove to myself that I can control my drinking though.

Mmmm, beer. I didn't lose my good job because of beer, I lost it because of the economy.

Maybe we don't all need to drink beer, but I know I sure like it. And hey, it's Friday!

Beer tastes nasty. Dr. Pepper RULES!

:D

I used to think beer was nasty too until someone handed me a Guinness in college and I realised what people were trying to give me before was not beer.

The latest craze is PBR's popularity. Nothing against PBR, but when you have all kinds of great tasting brews available, why go for yellow beer-flavored water?

Beer is beer. It's all good.

Some are better than others though, but you usually pay out the nose for the extra quality.

Last night I broke out one of my Double Bastard Ale bottles I have been hording. Yum! Twenty-two ounces of 10% alcohol by volume goodness.

MMMMMMMM beer!

I'll drink to that.

i can't bike and have beer. i end up having to stop every ten min and there isn't always a bathroom avail. not to mention i'm totally intox'd after one...and that's if i make it through the one. i know, cheep date. *sigh* besides i only drink beer maybe once a year if that. just don't like alc.

now popcicles... mmmmm, especially the orange cream ones.

cheers

UHHH

orange creamcicles kick, haven't had one in years!

Beercicles anyone?

My intake of coffee and brownies today has been quite inhuman... y'all have to excuse me.

Dr Pepper, isnt that a gateway drink. Most beer drinkers started their habit by just one soft drink.

I wonder if there has ever been a study done on beer and it's relationship to pregnancy? IOW, I wonder how many of us reading this forum are here because of beer. YOu know, momma gets a little liquored up and instead of sliding into third for a triple, daddy hits a home run!

:D

I'll second that, sort of. I much prefer Pepsi over anything with alcohol. :D

BTW: Trekkie, are you even legal?

Price!
Come on you get 12 of them for 5 friggin bucks. It's the last true american pilsner ;)

In all seriousness I like it. And I am not fond of any rice beer. Unfortunatlly I am gonna have to quit for awhile (at least cut back ;) ) to focus more on training for the road. I'm trying to get down to 175lbs. Plus it seems more like a Fall/Winter and Cyclocross beverage :D

How ELSE are you supposed to carbo-load? :D

beercicles blow the bottles up in the freezer and then you have glass in them... not fun!

don't know bout all that, but the spelling of my first name kinda got messed up from the liquer iv's they used to give birthing mothers. grandma spelled my mothers name wrong and i get the same spelling. although i always liked it, you just can't get it on a coffee cup.

Of course, beer is a sports nutrition drink. Where else are we going to get potassium? (Okay, maybe I don't want to know).

Bananas.

I think that it's really important to separate the product from product abuse. It makes no more sense to equate drinking a beer and therefore causing a job loss, marraige failure, child abuse, and the fall of western civilization, as it would to say that eating a twinkie will result in your death from obesity.

You sound like the 20 year old college kid who just had his first drinking experience that you are.

Welcome to now.

Moderate yourself so you don't do stupid things. Enjoy the fun, don't let it take over, but don't hold back.

I do moderate, I am not addicted to it, and I do enjoy the fun, and many times I do NOT hold back.

You don't have to prove your self here on a forum, or anywhere else. A lot of people will tell you to watch out, I have a feeling, you ain't gonna listen.
