That's what I was thinking. Perhaps YouTube will have the video?

Nothing like a troll to bring out the old regulars. Good to see you
post.
Oh yeah, never, ever drink anything alcoholic when you going to ride
[1]. As a matter of fact don't even sit on or push a motorcycle after
even one drink.
Walks away, hanging head low, big mistake.
[1] OK, I know a couple of folks[2] saw me drink a beer a Ray's Tavern
and then ride into Moab. But it was mid-day and hot and hell I was
with a gang and it was HOT.
[2] Calgary, Sleazy, Chuck, Mark, et. al [3].
[3] I wish I could make the NART reunion. Damn.

They saw you in a bar parking lot, but that isn't probable enough to stop
you unless you didn't something stoopid, like fall over on the bike in the
parking lot. They were checking you out waiting for you to screw up and
give them a cause to stop you and check you out...
When I was drunkard all the time, I hated them for that, now I hope they
stop every vehicle leaving a bar parking lot. They should check you at
the vehicle before you get in or on a vehicle.
Most police dept. get extra cash from the Feds now for catching DWI
drivers.

Is that because you view it as a public safety issue or because you believe
a DUI might give someone a chance/cause to change their life? (Or both?)
