dirt-bikes? Does it inhibit motor skills and create a danger to other
riders if someone has recently smoked pot?
Any comments, suggestions, bad jokes, etc. appreciated...

but who's counting). When I rode I could ride like a pro. I lost all fear
and could fly. Until the day I got a little too wild and started trick
jumping. Landed a no footer or two, got a little whippage going on. Then I
decided to try a nac-nac (this was when JMG was doing them). Foot hangs on
the seat and I land one footed messing up my knee and shoulder. My opinion
is don't smoke pot!!! It about killed me on a motorcycle and almost killed
me with an asthma attack. I haven't smoked pot in 2 1/2 years now and never
regret quiting. I still partake of the Lord's good brew but never before or
during riding

Uh I don't know, Let me think about that one for a few............
Ok dude it don't make a bit o difference just burn one and ride OK.
I do ride with some that smoke ALOT and they fly... Uh they are fast on
their bikes, sometimes.
But I can't do that and I don't think its a good idea. Just don't hurt
any one, OK.

Well, never got on anything motorized, but we used to bake up at night
and then hit the mountain bike trails through the backwoods, Amazing
thinking back that none of us cracked our skulls, but I guess a
combination of knowing the paths by heart, some ample starlight, and
GPS (Ganja powered senses) kept us safe... So, actually I guess I
provided you with absolutely no help.

Yep. Just as drinking alcohol or taking prescription drugs would dull you
senses.
Not much question about this one, even from some of the people in the group
who might have had a bong hit or two in the past.

Oh no..... drugs do NOT effect your riding ability. This is just urban

Yeah it inhibits motor skills for sure, and generally fucks your mind

I think if you are a "pot person" then you are helped by it. If your
body doesn't get along with THC very well (like me) then I think you
would end up talking to some trees somewhere and wondering where the
hell that little bunny with the top hat went...
Several of my buddies raced downhill mountain bikes (one expert, one
intermediate, and one novice) and they "fired up" a bowl or two before
races sometimes and were *very* focused. When I rode with them
sometimes they were *too* focused and you could sit there for a 1/2
hour or more with a flat before they realized you were missing.
Anyway, if it works for Emig, then it must be good!!! ;-)
Don't believe the Government's hype..

What I recall from studies years ago is that THC didn't affect reaction
time that much. It does affect attention span. They monitored the eye
movements of drivers. Clean drivers were always scanning the road and
mirrors. Stoned drivers tended to scan much less.
Interesting question. I will share some experiences later (involving my
broken leg).

Wow. Nice crosspost! :) Judging by pot's effects on driving, I'd guess you
could ride a motorbike stoned too. You'd just ride very very slowly.

No offense but you can't say that you necessarily did this BECAUSE of pot, shit,
people wipe out when they're sober all the time. I think you're just trying to
vent your frustrations and blame your mistakes on marijuana simply b/c society
has made people think it's all right to do so.

Drinking is a LOT more dangerous than marijuana, and I'm not talking about just
when it comes to riding dirt bikes.

I study herbs a bit and the good things that I found out about
Cannabis are these ( when used in moderation of course)
1. It is good for glaucoma patients or anyone that has an
occular pressure in their eyes that is approaching glaucoma levels. In other
words , it lowers damaging pressure to eye tissues and the optic nerve.
2. It is good for cancer patients in that it helps with pain
reduction and to regain appetite. The same goes for annorexics.
3. In moderation it also increases.........(SUPRISE!)
endurance.
4. In moderation it lowers bloodpressure
5. In moderation it actually opens up the bronchial passages
All things were put on this Earth for a reason, the problem comes
with abuse of these things. The people who think that Pot in of itself is
bad do not know what the heck they are talking about. It is the people that
give it a bad name by abusing it. Pot is great if you don't abuse it. Follow
the father of medicine Hippocrates and you'll live long. He said "PAN METRON
ARISTON" ( Ancient Greek) which means "everything in moderation" which he
includes the things we call "bad" also to balance things out.

No, you're wrong. I'm not going to go to name-calling on you though you
deserve it.
I'm glad that there are*some* people with enough sense to look after *other*
people's safety -- rather than have a stoned nitwit out practice racing with
the pee-wees on a track with other people who are fully capable of being even
less intelligent without any help.
You can get stoned and ride in the woods where you only hurt yourself.
Nobody has a right to put other people in jeopardy over selfish, clueless,
careless thoughtlessness.
I don't care what you do if you don't hurt anybody. And I've had my share from
way back.

That's the only way to ride! Around here the kids call that combo
"Concrete Prostate" and it's awesome. I usually drink about a gallon
or 2 of GHB and smoke about 27 or 30 crack rocks in a big gravity-bong
style crack pipe before I hop on my bike. The susbstances kinda
cancel each other out, so that's why you kinda have to do a lot or
else you won't feel anything. Also you have to SuperGlue your hands
to the handlebars before you do shit like this...

Thank you elrond! I don't care how safe you think weed is, it should
be common sense that you shouldn't do something like ride dirt-bikes
while in another state of consiousness. I mean, you're not only a
danger to yourself, you're a danger to other riders. That's really
not cool!
Just smoke after you ride, or at least ride by yourself if you insist
on being high.

word here ? Are you assuming the lawgivers are the ultimate knowledge and
authority ? If so where are you at on *legal* drugs such as tobaco, alcohol,
ritalin, valuim. prozak. estrogen....
NOT a pot smoker BUT not because it's illegal.
P.S. Not to start a flame war, but if a 9 y.o. kid WANTS to get high he WILL get

So what are you doing? Is it then okay when you taken out by some drunk driver
on the way home from the track? He was sure questioning authority in the same
'thinking' way.
Smoke pot where it won't hurt anyone else. After you put the bike away at home,
for example. It's not your RIGHT to put others in danger.

Back in 20's and 30's when the politicos thought people shouldn't be
drinking alcohol, they passed a constitutional amendment that said you could
no longer do so. The country ended up with armed gangs, drive-by shootings
and a lucrative underground black market that engaged in an arms race with
the authorities. They ultimately decided that you can't control what people
do with their own bodies and passed another amendment that nullified the
previous amendment and chalked it up to a big mistake.
With today's new prohibition, we have all the same ingredients without the
constitutional amendment. Why? What is fundamentally different today than
what occured back in the 20s? Just curious what kind of rationale you can
present ...

all. I have a friend with allergies that gets watery eyes etc. when he
snorts pollen. He is a danger to me and other riders when he does pollen.
Should pollen be outlawed? Then the only place I'll be able to get it is
from a pollen dealer/gang member! Then I would have to give up pollen
because I don't want to get caught in the crossfire of a pollen gang turf
war.
Everyone reacts differently. What works for you may not work for me.
I've ridden with college kids that smoke before a ride. By some logic here,
that means I (having not smoked) should be able to leave them in my dust.
Odd thing is, they still kick my a**! Do I think I could keep up if I smoked
also? No. Life just isn't fair! (-:

That's the man's sig file...it goes with everything he posts....and i
bet he couldn't really care about smoking and riding a dirt bike...b/c
i'm pretty sure he doesn't have one...and furthermore...while i don't
know much about dirt biking i'm pretty sure you don't ride on crowded
streets...if your out in the backwoods by yourself there is no one to
injure except yourself and maybe some innocent saplings.

Some of the same reasons that a drunk driver is putting people at risk. Slower
reaction time and impaired judgement among others. Sure, most of the time it

For one thing, there have been numerous studies done in different
countries that all come to the same conclusion...driving a motor
vehicle while under the influence of marijuana is not a hinderance to
one's performance...there haven't been any dirt-bike studies though,
to my knowledge.

You have to lick a *lot* of toads before you find one that tastes just

But the tongue exercise is good for a lot of other things....

concluded that marijuana doesn't affect real-life driving performance. And
as far as riding a dirtbike stoned, it's fine with me as long as all the
other riders agree to it. We should have the right to do with our bodies as

Jessus man, 100% my fault, wrong capitalization.
I just wanted to distinguish 'a person who rides off road' from an
MXer. It's ashame, that there's no term similar to 'crosser' (kind for
german) or MXer for off road riding. Perhaps dirter or dirtride (no,
that's a trademark, i guess)?
No intention of accusing you, whatsoever.

The key word here is "alcohol". Marijuana, unlike most believe, does not
cause that sort of intoxication. The biggest risk for a person driving
stoned is that he'll doze off. I've driven stoned too many times to
count, and it's not a big deal at all...unlike driving drunk. Won't do
that.
Anyway, the point is...did any of your friends get into an accident
after smoking ONLY marijuana?

Okay, first of all no one can bust someone for smokin' except a cop. Next
the BUST I was referring to is physical; not a metaphor for arrest. I don't

anyone for that. My point is that if you go looking for trouble you will

statistic.

This thread isn't about ALCOHOL use anyway. If you think the effects of pot
and alcohol are at all comparable, then you are ignorant. You might as well
say caffeine use while riding will kill you. I wouldn't advocate driving or
riding in any condition other than stone sober, but your statement
"...won't be burdening the rest of us with your pot smoking offspring"
shows your true colors.

Actually there is such a thing as a "Citizen's Arrest" You just have to be
willing to go to court to testify.
And, resisting a citizen's arrest is the same as resisting an officer.
A citizen can arrest anyone for breaking the law.
Just FYI

: that's a trademark, i guess)?
What do you call a rider that does both tracks and trail riding? Are
they a cross-rider? (Images of riding with a sequined dress and red
pumps comes to mind :-)

OK, that pretty much sums up how I ride all of the time... straight.
How on earth are you going to weed out the poor riders from the
chemically enhanced ones? Are you advocating urinanalysis stations at
every trailhead? VLJ would love this one. :-/

It's called a signature file genius and I don't ride dirt bikes, this was cross
posted in case you couldn't tell. It doesn't seem like you're on the ball today.

Oh there's plenty of quality thinking going on here. Hopefully several people could
vouch for me on that one.

I like to use that quote in terms of bullshit laws that shouldn't exist, like the
prohibition of marijuana.

Well, by most, but those assholes are doing a lot worse stuff than I've ever done.

I don't like Bill either, but that's b/c of his idiocy and bullshit policies, where
he's sticking his penis is the least of my concerns. Plus, I'd have to agree with
Chris Rock when he said that Hillary was the first lady so she should have been the
first one there suck his dick.

Well, right now I'm replying to your post but I'm about to take care of some chores
around the house. What are you up to?

Well, no it's not, but I don't go to the track and I don't own a dirt bike so leave
me alone.

And good for him. That's why he made it to my sig, oh wait, you don't understand the
concept of those do you?

Well, when I get a dirt bike, I doubt that I'll personally ride high, but for right
now it's up to the jurisdiction of the person riding. I'm not saying it's a good
idea, I'm just saying that people know how they act high and if they are used to
operating motor vehicles (and can do a good job of it like most people I know) then I
shouldn't have a problem with it. It's no dangerous than those that ride under the
influence of caffeine or other perscription drugs or such.
> It's not your RIGHT to put others in danger.
I know, and I wouldn't do it. The thing is, most of the people I know drive better
high b/c you're more cautious and aware of what's going on around you (not everyone)
so if they can drive better high then they are actually risking lives by driving
sober : )
