I am getting there also. I don't drink as much but I now prefer quality over quantity. i wont go too cheap on beer. or whiskey.
i wanted to comment on the brake bleeding. If a one man operation I gravity bleed first. take MC lid off ,open bleeder, wait till it is running/dripping out pretty steady. close bleeder off. Put lid back on, pump pedal with bleeder closed. then open bleeder with MC lid still on, look for "bubbles" then steady trickle. repeat as many times as needed. OR as a modification to the aforementioned procedure..I pump the pedal with the MC lid closed, then put a pry bar or two by four wedged in between the seat and pedal, holding pedal down, then open bleeder. you can hear the air squirt out. Do that a couple of times then try the first gravity bleed that I mentioned. It usually doesn't take much time or fluid and you should get a good pedal. What you want to avoid is letting the pedal up while the bleeder is "open" it actually draws air in and you will be there all day. If bleeding all 4,start at the furthest and work forward. that would be Right rear, left rear, right front left front. I will sometimes open all 4 and let them leak on a gravity bleed. working alone is a forte of mine :)
