    Happy Bicycle Day



    Bicycle Day is April 19, commemorating April 19, 1943, when Dr. Albert Hofmann first took LSD intentionally. Three days earlier, he had absorbed a small amount of the drug either through his fingertips or by accidentally ingesting it. On Bicycle Day, he took 250 µg of LSD intentionally and, fearing he had made himself ill, cycled home from his lab. During his bicycle ride, he experienced the effects of LSD, making this the date of the first ever acid trip. He wrote about his experiments and experience on April 22, which was later put into his book LSD: My Problem Child.
    This day (for LSD users) is when they celebrate the discovery and first ever use of the drug

    I just want to say something here.


    250ug is an ungodly amount of LSD

    Most doses are less than half that.


    A remarkable bicycle ride indeed. Happy bicycle day!

    I rode my bikes today. Hallucinogens, not so much.
    No longer stuck.

    More people should take LSD. Fucking squares are scared of their own brains and wasting a day tripping

    My first acid trip was at a Blue Oyster Cult/Black Sabbath double bill.
    There was both.

    Happy Bicycle Day

    Mine was the dead at Irvine Meadows. My buddy couldn't get shrooms, so got some tabs instead. Then we got impatient waiting to for the lightshow and we both took another. That made for a very eventful night

    bump!

    many great times (and a few weird or tough ones, too)

    one brief memory: black pyramids. hardpack day at mt baldy with friends, including now semi(?)-famous ski designer. mid-90s. me on tele and others on alpine. noticing in the early afternoon that nobody had skied Emile's, the quintessential bump run under the lift, because it was bulletproof. we gave it a go and scratched our way down the hardpack bumps on our poorly tuned 200's, laughing the whole way down the run because of the ridiculousness of the situation. then laughing even harder on the next lift ride because there were other people trying to ski the run... conjured the joke to ourselves, "hey, let's follow the kids on acid. they know where to find the good snow."
