Default How do you pick ?

Yesterday I went out and purchased a full face helmet. I usually do not wear a helmet, but I wanted one for riding in the rain. The problem is I find it very difficult to pick my nose while wearing this helmet. Can anyone tell me a great technique for picking your nose while at high speedwearing a "full face"?

Ashort length of wire coat hanger with a loop on one end and bend it to fit under the face shield should do it. Sheesh!

I found a piece of speedo cable run from the front wheel tucked under the face shield works. The best ones have a frayed end. The faster the speed the cleaner the nose.

I like the speedo cable idea! I think ifI cound mount the end to the helmet some-how and across the clutch lever........... I could get deeper penetration when I pull in the clutch. Thanks a bunch...I think I'm on to so something here!!!!!!!
Do you think I could market such a item?

You should have bought a modular full-faced helmet... the whole front of the helmet can be raised, thus providing excellent picking access.
