Sounds like a fun night. Good choice not to drive after you have been drinking, way to use your head.

I like the end there with the three-wheeler and all! Sure there wasn't just a little bit of drinking going on there towards the end

Drinking + 3 wheeler = Body cast

One of my buddies just bought a 84 honda 3 wheeler and after riding it I'm suprised they were on the market as long as they were. Sure they're a ton of fun but its only a matter of time before they flip.
