Getting Around

I was just in a neighboring town. It was 16 degrees and another light snow left about 2 and half inches over the city. I saw a guy riding his bicycle with narrow tires, down an icy sidewalk.
I think I know what was going thru his mind.
"I'll never drive drunk again, I'll never drive drunk again, I'll never drive....."

I'm not very good at catching some things. Does this mean his drivers license was taken away from him for drunk driving? Or, does it mean he felt like he was drunk on his bicycle? Is this a guy joke?

Yes,I'm assuming he lost his license and was down to getting around in the ice and snow on his bike.
It was funnier in my head.

Oh, boy, that's so true, Cliff. Alcohol, drugs, no insurance and a list of convictions and failure to appears. You might be surprised how many people drive without a license, too. Sounded like a miserable ride.

Good one Cliff. I've rode my bike in cold weather before but not 16 degress if there was any wind at all I'll bet that guy will stay sober for life.

It's possible. But then he could be a displace Seattlite. They love to ride their bikes. Everywhere. A Seattlite would be so dedicated to their small carbon foot print, that they would ride in 16 degree weather. But then again he was on the sidewalk and not in the middle of the street disregarding the rules but expecting large trucks and cars to give way to his method of driving, yep, most likely he has lost his license.

You may just be right. That's pretty cold for a bike ride.
