Psychedelics & Cycling

Damn, I’m a little surprise by the overwhelming yes, pretty interesting. I no longer use psychedelics but weed is pretty intense for me in my old age. When I started smoking weed again a few years ago it really fucked up my descending. Trying to go down the mountain at 40+ mph I can’t handle it because my mind is going crazy and I can’t stop thinking about what I am doing and how dangerous it is. The descent anxiety is too much for me. Those crazy road descents are so dangerous I don’t want to think at all, I just want to be in zen mode, weed makes me too self-aware. Anyway. My favorite time to smoke is after a huge ride and it really feels gratifying.
