On Thursday, November 5th, there will be a Vintage Bike night near downtown. If it doesn't snow, I may bring my GS1000. But since I don't drink now, I would feel stupid ordering soda in the bar. What do other non-drinkers order?

Water. Or sprite if you want it to look like you may be drinking something. As a bartender, I used to get asked this fairly often. Have a juice, no one will ever know it doesnt have alcohol in it and have them put it in an alcoholic drink cup versus a soda cup.
The most recent bike night I went to the owner of the joint was offering free margaritas to the riders to have it there. Seriously??!! It was nice hanging with folks and meeting new faces, but I just cant get into the whole drink and ride thing, even if its just one. |

I really don't give a shit what other people think if I'm not drinking. I believe I'm the smarter one for that, but that is my opinion. |

You know it is funny, I consider myself quite shy and I haven't drank in a what some of you would consider a very long time, and It never occurs to me to worry about how other view what I am drinking.

I am loud and clear that I dont drink when I ride, and that water or soda is fine. No one has ever given me crap for it and hopefully it makes a few stop and think before ordering that drink.

I am the same way, although bike nights up here are usually at Tim Hortons, not a licenced establishment. that is just plain dumb.
