    I was about to launch one when somebody passed me... and then there was the cold weather one last week when I'd pulled into the school bike rack that would *not* drop off... (I didn't start this thread, I didn't start this thread )

    That's why I hate when people ride behind me, I can't blow my nose properly. (see I do think about other people ).
    But if I am riding a race then I just do it, because everybody else does

    I think I did pretty good as far as shooting straight down for the road. You could have been right behind me and it would have been ok.


    Wonder how gross I can get this thread.

    I've found for me to be successful, I have to be moving at at least 18 mph. I dunno - it's my threshold I've discovered. Anything less than that, and things can get kind of.....messy.
    I fare better with stop signs and traffic lights. Just lean and blow. I'm sure the folks in cars love it.
    Rode last winter with a guy who had NO luck at all, and he had quite a mess on his shoulder. GAG! I was actually wretching in the back, and had to go up in front and lead for the rest of the ride. It was NASTY.

    As gross as it is- I am jealous! We don't get much cold weather here, so I don't know what to do with my runny nose. My arm warmers usually get the bulk of my winter drainage. This thread is gross to anyone but cyclists!
