Also every Pot thread on Vital: Pot totally makes you enter your Zen Flow state, eliminates arm pump, and directly produced all my wins. Half the 450 SX class uses it.
Nah bro, I can smoke the Vet class at a local race without the weed too Tongue

So crazy to see people so openly talking about weed. I’m an old dude in Florida, weed has been taboo my whole life, and now, everyone at the med weed place is my age and still paranoid. You can see it in the noobs who come in.

Just funny to see it discussed so openly now.

Please, resume your discussion.
Is it still recreationally illegal in florida? Of all places I’d think they wouldn’t give a fuck

Wasn't it Short Stack that had a leaf painted on the top of his helmet? Or was it Mosier?

But those were the days when weed was nothing more than a unfiltered cigarette. Nowadays the bud is like a acid trip

If only you guys knew... something with the affect it has only you blood vessels will give you the gnarliest arm pump. Maybe it’s different for smoking but I know it gives you gnarly arm pump when you eat it. I know a guy it happend to... Only time this guy has ever had arm pump.

Go eat a 150-250mg edible tonight and then go race a 30 min moto the next day then come tell me I’m wrong. You wouldn’t make it 10 minutes.
No offense, to me this is kind of stupid. I don’t go out on a Saturday night and get totally ripped out of my mind at bars and then go to the track on Sunday and try to race. So what’s the difference?

Man idk, every time I smoked before a race my legs got way too heavy. Also, I remember getting a hole shot in a hare scramble and I started getting passed, I was so paranoid, I thought “I suck” “I should pull off”. For me personally, racing needs to be intense. I don’t want inner dialogue, unless it’s fuck these mother fuckers.

Just curious lol. (It really doesn’t matter either) but I see multiple riders who smoke regularly. Do they get tested? Maybe once before the first race?

Yeah, no rec weed, only med.

But we can get flower, vape, concentrate and edibles, but each vendor has their own brands....not like everyone sells Smokies brand edibles.

They try to keep it low key. There's so many med weed places near me now...crazy

I used to smoke before every ride day hell I'd even be having blunts at the track, it doesn't effect arm pump

I know I’ve bumped into more than a few of our local fast guys-some of whom have done pretty well on the national scene, in sign up line in the morning-suspiciously bloodshot and giggly...as was I usually.
I’m in the same boat, a couple hits really loosens me up; I tend to ride better and not get arm pump cause I’m not death gripping the bars. That said there was a few times I got like...higher than giraffe pussy and raced, I still rode okay but good god is a 40 man gate into that first turn a little extra nerve wracking Laughing
Giraffe pussy high is the best feeling

Lots would depend on the testing parameters being used... Plenty of PEDs that could be used that have a short clearance time in a matter of hours, and if the testing is lackluster would make it even easier to cheat.

Weed, highly unlikely its going to help you while riding (I've tried many of times), but I have no doubt that some of the riders are even using TRT to help extend their careers and aid in recovery...
