I should clarify: I almost never drink coffee before long rides. (Although I do drink a few cups before my 5 mile commute to work.) I always feel way too jazzed up if I drink too much coffee and try to bike a long distance. My chest starts pounding, and my heart starts to feel like it's going to explode. I had a couple incidents like that, and then I started saving the coffee for after the ride.
