Paceline smokers, come out of the closet!
 

Who's a smoker around here? How long? How much?

HA! Not me but I was wondering this very same thing a few days ago.

does weed count ?

Does brisket count?

Obviously a LOT more cyclists smoke weed than tobacco.

It's the cage drivers I'm worried about though, for cyclist's safety.

ditto

When I was 18-19 years old I smoked for about one year. This was circa 1988-89 or so. I used to ride a track bike back then and I'd go out for a nice long ride come home and light up a cig. One day I thought to myself *** am I doing? I ended up quitting. It was not too hard after only one year but I felt the addiction. After two weeks cold turkey I lit up a cig and I guess now I know what it's like to shoot heroin because it felt like nothing ever in my life. I still very clearly remember that day. BUt that was it. After that in college maybe once in a great while i'd bum a smoke but I never got into it again.

I do like a cigar maybe once a year though. And till this day when someone walks by smoking I like the smell of it.

Smoking *anything is bad for you, why not just eat it if you must?

The odd cigar has been taken, not as often these days as the smoking Police will get you even if you think about sparking up.

Well, you have an ally in Joe Jackson:

Personally, I think nicotine is foul. But, given that this is a bike forum, it took some guts to post this, so kudos on that front.

Don't get me on that one, our daughter is massively allergic to smoke, totally disabling migraines. Enjoy your sparking up in your house.

It's okay to smoke the competition!

I was hoping this was another cooking thread

Aaah well.

I don't like smoking anything. Not even weed. I'm slow enough as it is and don't want to impact lung function

I should have probably come clean from the start: I smoke a few per day, although I haven't done it on the bike yet.
