I plan on trying a medical solution. I had read somewhere that this condition is called "vasomotor rhinitis", and that there is a prescription nasal spray called Atrovent that can help control it. I'm going to ask my doctor about it, the next time I see him. I don't ride very often in the dead of winter in Chicago...but I will attempt to ride when it gets above freezing. So I'm okay with using a nasal spray on an "as needed" basis...which would realistically only be a few times a month (if that) during the winter time.
That's what I usually use - my prescription ran out so I'm back to the rubbed-raw-red nose and snot rockets. The prescription doesn't stop everything, but it controls the constant running. I need to get a refill -- NOW!
For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.
