I admit it: I snot rocket on rides. A lot.
As a practice, It leads to dried up snot fluid stains in strange places: back of my jacket. the back of my riding sweater. my cycling bag. The index fingers of both of my winter gloves. I’ve considered, more than once, taking claritin before rides to dry me out.
I never remember.
Anyway, The other night on the way home, I was lining up a big one coming to the intersection of Main and Green lane. It was going to go right over my left shoulder. At the last second, I caught something out the corner of my eye. I hesitated. A rider in a gotham cycles jersey came right up next to me. He had no idea how close he came to having his face covered in my snot.
