Champion  10668     Tacoma, Washington |  Subject: It's snot about the bike...So, for some reason, when I ride, my nose goes into overdrive. Gushing. I mean, the occasional farmer blow is to be expected, but this... Seriously, I could do a farmer blow every quarter mile with discharge to spare. It's BAD! Running, no problem -- dry nose. Swimming? Well, I have no idea, as I'm exhaling through my nose all the time. But on the bike... Any one else get this? |

Extreme Veteran 590 Sioux Falls, SD | Subject: RE: It's snot about the bike... I rode to work on Tuesday for the first time since early June (recovering from an injury.) About a mile down the road I saw a big drip fly out of my nose and hit the ground. I remember the thought popping into my head, "man, I've missed that!" |

Melon Presser 52116 | Subject: RE: It's snot about the bike... The point is to get the snot to MISS the bike ... People can't believe what-all comes out of me, and how much, during training. I thought it came from years of smoking, and it may well, but other people who have never smoked do this, too. |
