Does anyone else find it impossible to break wind whilst riding without lifting a cheek off the saddle?
Personally, if I don't, I seem to get a bit of a backfire and it hurts!

I once rode the London to Cambridge.
Part-way along, there was a hill, so I got out of the saddle and powered my way up.
After a few yards, I was greeted by The Fart I Didn't Know Was Brewing.
It was loud.
Clearly audible from 50 yards behind, as reported by a friend who was 50 yards behind. It rang out
And lo! there were many people in those fateful 50 yards.
I continued accelerating, my cheeks burning with shame...

At least lycra breaths, whereas, if there any divers on here please remember, never break wind in your wetsuit

Unfortunately the expansion of gases as a diver surfaces is well known to cause a lot of farting. We quickly learned to turn our head to one side if we were asked to unzip a buddy with a shoulder-zipped drysuit.

i never suffer with flatulance , i just get the blame all the time

 

[vernon]

I still get amusement from dropping an SBD behind a row of boys in the class room and watching them come to blows as they blame each other for the smell. After all, teachers don't fart do they.

I don't suffer with flatulence... I quite enjoy it.

Downhill, on the drops, lift off the saddle slightly and 'hit the afterburner'. I am impressed by the silencing properties of padded shorts

I take lansoprazole for reflux, boy it doesnt half free you of wind.

The problem is carbohydrate. I start farting about an hour after I finish a ride if I've had maltodextrin in my bottle. The other big problem nowadays is apples, eaten in the office.

I'm with you on that one!!

Those thoughtful people at Brooks provide 3 holes in their saddles to allow relief without having to lift a cheek

It's one of the downsides of riding fixed. Relaxing enough to let one go while you are constantly pedalling is, at least for me, impossible.
