I don't recommend getting drunk and riding a ATV. I do drink and I took many shots of Jim Bean one night camping with some buddies, and we all decided to go jump on some cotton bails near my house. I was stupid and we got ON the road! I was perfectly fine driving though because I had someone on the back with me so I knew I dint need to act up. VERY VERY stupid thing to do and I will never do it again. I thought about it the next day, I got a future and only one life, so I havent drank anything in about 2 months. I dont think there is nothing wrong with drinking a couple and riding but not much more than that.

 

Alcohol and machinery do not mix, nor should they. Enough people die in ORV areas the way it is. It is not acceptable in any other form of motorsports, why should it be here? Now, if you want to do it on your own property so be it. I have no desire for I or my young one to be in the path of your collision with Darwin. Have a barbeque if you wanna throw back a few. Or go too a bar and then DRIVE home... Sorry for the rant, this is just a sore subject with me. I've seen to many people screwed up because of alcohol and machinery...

 

Finally some people with some insight to what I'm trying to get across!! I knew there where some people with some brain cells left to realize whats right and wrong, everyone has an excuse for drinking and riding but when a loved one dies because you thought "aw heck nothing will happen" then there the first ones to cry about the others that do it. Thats what I like about arctic cat manuels with every flip of the page theres a statment about how someone gets hurt or dies especially the little ones, I'm sure people can handle there own but if something ever goes wrong and they find out you've been drinking then your in for a world of hurt. Also it's funny how all the people who enjoy drinkin and riding answered my post first and then started bashing me, you know I don't hate you for it, you all have an opinion it's a free country, just don't let me see your loved ones or you in the papers. Remember it could happen. And to those that think I sound like a preacher, I'm not I just love the sport!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] And I want it to be there for my grand kids!!
