this is dedicated to all of the mountain bikers who have had to fight the hard fight against drugs and alcohol.

Cool,not myself but my brother is currently doing time in California state prison,all drug related.One of the things I talk to him about is MTB after he gets out several months from now.Hopefully the time gets the DEMON out of his system and he can ride with me(im even considering getting him a bike)...

Nothing like a little Wharf Rat to inspire a flashback! I really thought Townshend was going to throw down some windmills.

Thats a hellofa trip. Too bad Keith Richards was playing guitar.

Sorry, I'm holding out for the thread for those in denial.

How is mountain biking not a drug?

My reference to Pete Townshend refers to him throwing down some wharf rat; definitely not Keith Richards on this clip.

get him a bike it will help give him something to do. keep him away from people from his past that did drugs if you can. i went through this with my cuz a few time he kept relapsing
and went back to jail 2 more times till i started to hang out with him more witch kept him away from the people who where not trying to help him. also he has to want to quit himself before you can help him. hope every thing works out.

It is an addiction for sure i started with a $500 bike and now own a $5000 bike and was only a year later and i still try to find parts to up grade. not to minchin all the riding witch is the good part but still an addiction in its self.

Cycling IS my recovery. Was addicted to meth for 22 years. I made a ton of money as a stockbroker, so I was high non-stop. Now, I have a new addiction - BIKE PARTS!

I was once addicted to crack, but now I am off and selling magazine subscriptions.

I recovered some drugs on a ride once. Did 'em all.

Also been known to recover a couple of sofas and a comfy chair with a velvety stripe pattern. Railroaded, of course.

Best of luck to all of you recovering! I know it's a hard thing to overcome, I've seen it more than once in my family.

Did you have a cameo role in Office Space?

Biking has definitely contributed to my turn around in life.
(It was for the better)
