zero tolerance is ok i guess, but what happens to the people who ride to the bars and then have the 10-15 minute ride home at 11 or 3 o'clock at night, i dont think there gonna be affected, and i also think that some people need to make better choices on whether they can ride. If we stop to eat i know the people i ride ith ahave a beer or somethng alchoholic, it doesn't impair them in anyways therefore they find it ok. Last winter we went to eat at a restaurant in vt and we ended up meeting some people up there and stayed late playing pool and having a good time with many people drinking, the parents decided it was not safe to go on the 15 minute ride home, so we slept over a total strangers house. Tons of people ride after or stop and have a beer while there riding, but some dont drink to get drunk and ride, like i said its what they have for a beverage with their food. Its another thing drinking all night then ridin around like a maniac waitin for an accident.
this is just what i think as a 15 year old...
o yea we losta good friend of ours at the beggining of the winter,he was ridin in vt while we were in nh, i dont know how much of an infuence it had on the drinking...
