Since I usually am the one driving I also limit it to the one and have never had more than that after a ride or race. If you're finishing a ride and waking up the next morning with a hangover you need to get your life together. Most people I know stopped having hangovers by the end of college. Will say that maybe it was the crowds I moved among but we had a much bigger munchie issue, still do at times.
