This has been a very funny thread. I get runny noses while running and sometimes while riding. Usually the farmer snort (my husband's term) works out on the bike. RAGBRAI is full of people, however, and I had to be very careful then. About the gloves, by the end of RAGBRAI, they actually smelled bad. Somebody else in our group made the same comment about her gloves, so I wasn't alone in that respect. I think it was because everything was always slightly damp, and they never dried out overnight. I washed them in the washer, and now they are odor free.
