1 glove for sweat the other for snot.
Make sure you're consistant.....

No 2 for snot, sleves/arm coolers for sweat

I try to avoid snorting whilst at speed it tends to end up flying all over the place on my shorts,jersey,it's really quite gross at the best and getting a covering of some one else's snot is nasty

Becs, please, "ladies" can be as gross.

Last year doing the Northern Rock Cyclone at about 50 miles I dropped in behind a lady rider, not drafting, just enjoying the view when about a mile down the road she lifted her butt slightly and let rip something that would have made Black Beauty proud!
Needless to say I pulled past her at that point and she had a huge grin on her face as I passed.

Problem is though if you need to fart and are partway through a ride, what are you supposed to do? You can't really direct gaseous emissions like you can solid emissions like a snot rocket.

Fortunately for me my nose always clears when I am cycling, it is when I stop that I get the hayfever symptoms.

Up here the "pinch one nostril and blow out of the other" is known as the Gateshead Hanky. Perfectly acceptable sporting behaviour, not so acceptable if walking the dog/school run. Just make sure no one is in range.

Edit: make sure no one sees you doing it, if you live on Gosforth. Oh God, the shame...."Tarquin saw Justin's daddy expelling mucus from his nose......"

you wouldn't catch them doing this in Gosforth anyway as their heads are usually do far up their own backsides..

Nowt like firing out a good snot rocket. I find a quick wipe of the excess on the mitts helps with water proofing!
