If you have noticed, their is an alarming number of junkheads starting to surface out their in the MTB scene, in both DH and CC. Males and females alike are popping, and a lot of these "PRO" athletes are doping...more than you may think. It would be nice if athletes started focusing on the sport more and less on partying and cheating......maybe more money would flow in our direction. If you are a junkhead and are reading this, you deserve every bit of punishment you get, and if not more, for you are costing clean athletes more than you know, and you are crippling the sport as we know it. MTB Competition is not doing well right now...we need all the help we can get. Drugs are illegal, plain and simple...so deal with it.

Junkhead? Like heroin?

Heroin,pot, Phen, snow,...no matter. You are not suppossed to be using it per NORBA/and UCI regs. THe bad thing is ...most of these MTB'ers are potheads as it is, so their is no active drive to keep the sport clean. :mumble:

 

[Sir Happypants]

depends on how you define mountain biking as a sport, people will always ride bikes on dirt. cant stop, wont stop, Eh uh Eh uh, bad boys for life

 

[zedro]

uh oh, i sense a sport vs. lifestyle debate looming....

...or maybe not.

 

[Inclag]

ahahahahahahaha!!

Are these mountain bike kiddies at their soap box socials tripping out and eating kittens or something?

There's going to be cheaters in every sport, well maybe not chess or that card game called Magic. I think the forums you are looking for are on www.mlb.com :devil:

 

[mack]

That's ok.

I would be mad as well if I accidently posted about drugs and performance enhancers with regard to baseball, and made the mistake of calling the players; mountain bikers, downhillers, or cross country riders as well as mistakenly naming the sport of baseball as cycling :devil:

 

[Transcend]

most of these MTB'ers are potheads as it is

way to be a generalising moron. Please get a life, and do a fact check before you make sweeping generalisations about an entire group of people ok?

boy do you get cranky when you're sober....

 

[Bikael Molton]

well this certainly is a random / dumb post!

 

[Curb Hucker]

ahahahahahhahah

 

[nh dude]

if junk is reference to steriods and performance enhancing drugs well that great... if its to drinking as many redbulls before your race then its no good
if you think smoking some marijuana makes you a better rider then good for you
because many people dont consider it performance enhancing
but some of the people that mountainbike do smoke it
i would image its not the xc guys they might be discussing real performance enhancing drugs check ther forum...


Outside the lines on espn awhile bob ley guy did a show about weed and sports this is the transcript inteview typed up

http://espn.go.com/page2/tvlistings/show152transcript.html
there some stuff from rashamm salaam and some stuff about substance responsability vs abuse from other retired pro athletes

 

[Transcend]

boy do you get cranky when you're sober....

Bite me, dough boy! BTW drinking on thursday if you are up to it.

in my class for my mip we had to rread about all these studies where people thought they were better at doing an activity from video games to driving to skateboarding. the effects lasted with them for about 12 hours and all of there scores where higher before they smoked.

now as an x pot head i realize that smoking ****s with you majorly (and ****ing college has me smoking cigs alll the time i know i know dont even start)

its cool if someone wants to smoke but be smart ie rich housman and my dog delbosco. both threw out huge titles b/c of smoking a little weed. prime example kid up here has been in a little trouble to say the least (2 assult charges brought down while he was a minor, plus a trespassing and like 3 smoking tickets) kid had to stay clean for a year and decides that half way through hes gonna smoke cuz its so worth going to jail over and getting kicked out of college forcing himself into a job at grease monkey. anyways the day after he smokes his po stops by and tests him. he got ****ed its stupid but thats the way it works. is the juice worth the squeeze? thats what you have to ask yourself. i dont think so

 

[Kornphlake]

These threads always end the same, just do a search for pot, or visit the one that's always at the top of the beer and food forum, there's enough reading there for the better part of this afternoon. Mods can this thread be deleted?

 

[Eigil]

I think he's addressing the people that whined when Del Bosco and Houseman had their wins taken when tested positive for THC. I agree, they're professional athletes, and they should know better to stay away from that ****.

 

[kidwoo]

, snow,...no matter. :

And here I thought no one actually used the lingo that appeared in health class textbooks from 1981..........

No form of mountain biking will ever come close to touching the degree to which road cycling has tainted itself. And yet that sport probably still has more money in it annually than mtb has had cumulatively over the last decade.

Besides just being illegal, pot also makes you shoot people and get pregnant....I saw it on a commercial.

wah wah wah wah wah... someones not living their life the way I feel they should be living it. Suck it up princess and mind your own business.

If you don't like pot, then don't smoke it.

no, come on man this is america get with the program. When someone is not living the way you feel they should you gotta protest, file lawsuits and bitch and whine for hours on end

Didn't you get the friggin' memo? All prohibited substances are evil. The only good ones are the ones that pharmaceutical conglomerates can patent and make a bundle off of...you know, not really cures but treatments that keep your annuity payments coming until the ailment or chemical side effects finally kill you off. By then, a new and improved miracle drug is available, by sheer coincidence of course, when the original patent was about to run out.

She got down but she never got never got tight...

Anyway, drugs are bad for the professional side of our sport because they are a PR nightmare for sponsors. This is not about "right v. wrong" but more about the realities of a sport that relies on sponsor dollars for races and pro contracts. With more and more reports of performance enhancing and recreational drug use, more sponsor dollars are leaving, which is bad news for racing.

 

[Greyhound]

Well said, OG.


Perhaps if we, as cyclists, had a "Players Union", we could negate drug testing just like pro ball players.


Poor cycling.......you've taken a lot of lumps lately. Hang in there, sweetie. TImes will get better. Everything is cyclical, and when the powers-that-be decide cycling is the newest, hippest thing on two wheels, you'll be back in the spotlight.

 

[anarchyUK]

well VVV

Mushrooms:
Don't enhance performance but WOW the colors are great and I feel like I'm actually flying.

Cocaine:
Makes me go REALLY fast , but I just can't deal with the nosebleeds and I keep having to pull over to do some more.

Heroin:
Puking under full face helmet is no fun but it doesn't hurt when I crash off that 15 footer.

Pot:
Just makes me happy and I don't care if I'm going fast or not. It's just fun to ride my bike.

Pills:
Go away I'm sleeping.

X:
Screw biking I'd rather dance and touch myself.

 

[Cant Climb]

I wonder if the guy who is sueing Big Bear had THC in his system the time of his wreck.......?......if he was clean his chances of hurting himself are greatly reduced, unfortunately i can speak from personal experience.

If he wasnt clean he needs to accountable for His actions.

If he was clean i'll say a prayer for him.
