janneman72 Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Riding a race on Saturday, the guy in front of me permanently snot rocketed in the bunch, spraying everyone behind him. He could've moved over to the other lane or fall back in the bunch but he didn't. After the 3rd time I had a little chat with him, obviously a rookie of note. It's absolutely disgusting and what about viruses, Ebola etc?
dirtypot Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 You waited until the third time? I would have had a word after the first time! Sis
Long Wheel Base Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 That's just plain arrogant and ignorant. I'm surprised you lasted 3 times but at least you sorted the idiot out.
Guest Karma Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 A Rookie?What does that have to do with manners or common decency.
janneman72 Posted October 30, 2014 Author Posted October 30, 2014 A Rookie?What does that have to do with manners or common decency.The guys who have been riding a long time look over their shoulder, fall to the back of the bunch or move over to the other lane. I've never seen someone riding for 10 years+ who blow their nose in mid bunch.
Slowbee Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 You did the right thing, but to late. Rookie, having never been in a bunch, might not have thought through what he was doing. So good on you for guiding him on the correct bunch etiquette. Its how things should be done, the experienced guide the un experienced. Its just you waited a few snots to many
Stretch Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 so enlighten a non roadie....what is the general rule of thumb for farting in the pelaton?...is there a differentiation between those loud ouderless ones and those quiet silent killers?
Vetseun Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 He was a rookie and in front of you..... Just saying.Beat me to that one hahahaaaha
janneman72 Posted October 30, 2014 Author Posted October 30, 2014 He was a rookie and in front of you..... Just saying.Correct! Sondela is a very-very flat race and the guys only start to split after 20-30kms perhaps.
MTBc Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 He was a rookie and in front of you..... Just saying. Don't you normally let the rookies pull you along??
Vangar Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 I'd hit him so hard google wouldn't be able to find him

Actually the first BD I have spent with any of my siblings in about 20 years.... and had 2 of them around to boot... total damage count was 1 bottle of red and 2 1/2 beers between 5 adults... from 5pm till 10.... oh - and about 10 espresso's... so all in all a pretty quiet evening....
