Now we might get into semantics with regards to "use" vs. "abuse" but the whole bicycles and beer theme that is heavily promoted makes me doubt the "cyclists don't abuse alcohol" bit. And by heavily promoted I mean they put a cap lifter on damn near anything bike related. I've got a front rack with a cap lifter. I see tools with cap lifters, and then there are even dropouts designed for use as a cap lifter. As someone who doesn't drink beer, it starts to get annoying, seeing all the bicycles and beer promoted. And then I saw this just the other day: http://www.outsideonline.com/adventu...-Cyclists.html

Now granted, those cap lifters can be used for other beverages, but it seems that beer is the only one that gets mentioned.

Don't get me wrong, I much prefer drunken cyclists to drunken motor vehicle operators, but don't tell me that "cyclists don't abuse alcohol". There are alcoholics in every group, bicyclists included.
