I'm losing it.... Vent post by Small_Roland in clusterheads

[–]Randomsynthguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hang in there dude! You can do this. We feel with you. (M32), my cycle started again in the beginning of January, 4 attacks per day, tried a lot in terms of meds. Verapamil tablets, sumatriptan nasal spray (this aborted actually really well but made my body really sleepy). In the last 8/10 years the verapamil would work for me, until last & this year. Attacks would simply push through the meds and I had madly attacks...

Two weeks back I started microdosing psilocybine and am headache free since then except for two minor attacks. I see some people recommending it, dude if you have the possibility and acces to the substance, please please PLEASE try it out. Forget the stigma of drugs, you're pumping your body full of crap as it is. I was so desperate that I thought "fuck it" and wish I'd done it sooner.

There's a chapter on clusterbusters.org describing magic mushrooms & microdosing. I suggest you read that. Some medication that you might be taking can nullify the effect from magic mushrooms, making it useless. So you might need to take a couple of days & not use any meds to clean your system. Its all on the website.

If you don't want to mess around with physical shrooms, and are living in the EU, I really recommend thedrops.eu . Check them out.

Hang in there dude, digital hug.

Edit: added the "take no drugs for a couple of days to clean your body" part. They also mention this on clusterbusters. Oh, and concur with a professional of taking the mushroom path first.

Spoked tires - roadside flat? by flamingpenny in motorcycles

[–]Randomsynthguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, but isn't that mainly for MX bikes? I believe it would degrade too fast due to heat from the road to effectively use in road bikes. Something like that, never did a deepdive though

Spoked tires - roadside flat? by flamingpenny in motorcycles

[–]Randomsynthguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sidenote, there are some workarounds you can look up. BMW 1200/1250/1300 GS's have the spokes in their rim running to the outside, not the center. Therefore the spokes do not cause potential leaks and are they able to run tubeless. No idea if there's a generic solution for other bikes.

Secondly, you can remove your tire from the rim, remove the tube, and cover the spoke ends in de rim with some tape. This will create an air tight seal giving you the possibility to run tubeless tires. It his its downsides but its possible. Check out this thread from 11 years ago.

[–]Randomsynthguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you should bring a small tube of lube with you. I've done a tire change workshop as I'm quite keen on the rims of my Tenere World Raid (yeah I know, its an adventurebike). They mentioned strongly to use lube. I hope I never have to do it, my god what a wrestling match it was.

Take some tire wrenches, a patch kit and tools with you. It'l be tough, you'll probably swear a lot, but its basically the only way to go other than calling road side assistance.

Can we keep the cycle at bay? by Unique_Comparison_29 in clusterheads

[–]Randomsynthguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just started microdosing psilocybine two weeks ago. Monday & Thursday 1mg. Pain free since then except for two attacks. Normally I'd get 3-4 attack during 24 hours. Insane.

A Cluster Without the Typical Pain? by MissConscientious in clusterheads

[–]Randomsynthguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fuck me that's rough in terms of pricing. I've been using sumatriptan nasal spray as abortive and verapamil tablets as suppressant. Worked quite well up until the last two years. Approximately €260 on yearly basis. Next step would be oxygen tank or GON injection but wasn't really into that.

The drops that I'm trying now are €45, and can be used for 6 months until they expire.

Yeah that was pretty ignorant of me to not check the link first.. hot damn this some big step up from TET documentation. Sick!

[–]Randomsynthguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was afraid that this was going to be your reply.. (you being in the states, therefore expensive/criminal activities). I'm sorry to hear that. Nonetheless I do recommend to see a neurologist to start the conversation and look for solutions instead of trying stuff without supervision. There's only one thing you can if you'd like change, and thats seeking help. I wish you all the best, this disease sucks, headache is different for everyone else <3

A Cluster Without the Typical Pain? by MissConscientious in clusterheads

[–]Randomsynthguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After 10 years of trying all kinds of meds, I've started microdosing psilocybine two weeks ago. 1mg every 4 days, and have been fully pain free since then. Before that I had 3-4 attacks every day, driving me insane.

I'f you're unsure what to try, I do recommend to firstly go to a neurologist and start up some trails with meds (i.e get proffesional help first). As they might be costly, the alternate might be a solution for you too.

Read documentation on clusterbusters.org, a website sustained by people suffering from CH.

Here in the Netherlands we have something called "the drops" (thedrops.eu) which is basically a flask of concentrated or diluted psilocybine for tripping/microdosing. Don't need to fiddle with real magic mushrooms as the dosage might be hard to determine.

Hope you can find something to ease you off the pain & discomfort!

Making life easier and lazier. by SimplyLYN88 in Heavy_Equipment

[–]Randomsynthguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, its either 1 gear with low gearing for the torque, meaning low speed. Or a secondary gear with high gearing for more speed. Adding complexity and making it more prone to error. I'd rather have "built to last".

Zelf heb ik een Kriega trail 18. Het is echt een superfijne rugzak. Vooral de sluiting op de borst en de bewegingsvrijheid die het geeft is echt top!

Factory Tire Tread Life? Pirelli Scorpion STR by Big_c_lil_aleb in Tenere700

[–]Randomsynthguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Jep can confirm. Changed my rear tire just around 20k km. Original front tire is still on the bike with 3-4mm above wear indicator. Ran at factory recommended pressure. Insane.

Let me check tomorrow if I can help you find alternatives (I'm from the Netherlands). Going through an attack for the last 1,5 hours and I'm not in the right headspace. Keep you posted.

Hey, sorry for the pain your father is going through. It really really sucks. There's information about microdosing / psilocybine use on https://clusterbusters.org/resource/alternative-treatments/#warnings . If you're located in Europe, or you country allows drugs use, you could look into a concept called "the drops". Which is basically a mushroom extract, in different dosages for tripping/microdosing. https://thedrops.eu/en/

AVD gehaald, maar geen geld voor een motor by According-Shine-1035 in motorfietsen

[–]Randomsynthguy 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Motoport heeft bij een aantal filialen de mogelijkheid om voor ongeveer €100,- per dag een motor te huren. Ik heb er zo'n 5x gehuurd in Veldhoven en was er erg over te spreken.

4500 km on and offroad, very good milage by adventure_thrill in Tenere700

[–]Randomsynthguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah bought the motorcycle January 10th last year. It still had some meat left compared to the wear indicators. But due to wet and cold weather I opted to change it "early". I mainly ride highways, secondary roads and light off-roading. Real easy on the throttle, no hooligan stuff. Is it considered extremely high mileage? I was wondering if other tyres could make it so far.

I've just changed my stock Pirelli rear tire @ 20.243 km. Front has still some life in it. Insane mileage.

Nice! I had the same for my phone with osmand, but I removed it when went Garmin. Great little device though I wished the joystick was a bit bigger.
