Riding alone absolutely produces highs in the form of adrenaline and endorphins and such, and you certainly don't NEED marijuana to enhance it. However, I have a lot of experience with riding, it's pretty much as easy as walking for me, and I have nearly as much experience being high. Clearly I am not being completely safe here, but I was on an empty, private track, with a friend there keeping an eye on me. And I'm one who recognizes his limits and does not push them. That's why I mentioned many time throughout the article and the editor even added a disclaimer, that the vast majority of people should not try this, and it is a very dangerous experiment only to be exercised by the most experienced racers.

Weed enhances sensation (a pretty redundant idea) - but to a distorted level - so when you succeed it feels extra good; and bad, extra bad. If you are a good rider you may feel success enhanced but in reality your performance will be comprimised as with any interference of your natural chemistry. It is irresponsible to endorse this as there are young folks who may consider such an experiment and fail - and we all know failures at the MX track can be deadly. LSD weakens your grasp of reality much further by allowing your subconcious to intrude on the sensory intake. Think of how it may go if you begin to dream while awake - simply put, you are optimistic in idiotic proportion. A false reading of reality at 50 MPH can lead to a handlebar through the head.
