No offense intended, but mountain bikes and weed have gone hand in hand since forever....a Marin County/ sinsemilla thing. Been meaning to get mine on the trail for some midnight strobe riding. May be a “chicken or egg” argument on the demeaning and cheapening of morals and values. America grew up mildly buzzed on apple-jack, and I can’t say that MJ prohibition made things any better. Kids will make their own mistakes.
The guys I ride with are a few years younger than me and thus a few years stronger.
Only due to my superior bike handling skills can I keep up, and then only on technical trails.
They smoke like chimneys and just keep on going.
Oh wait: I can beat then at night, even with their $200 lights.
The fast decision-making requirements of mountain biking dovetail well with my ADHD - the only area where they are a benefit!
Smoking of the pot just slows me down on the trail and makes my line sloppy.
