Default Picking boogers while riding

Anyone have trouble picking boogers while riding?

I had to go to fingerless gloves just to get up a knuckle up a nostril. The dry air wrecks havoc on my clinkers. Dry, brittle, and ugly. They taste bad, too. I guess it's the road grime.

No gloves, no problem.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Convenient picking while riding, just give it a flick, &amp\\;\\\\\\; gone with the wind. Probably don't want you're riding buddy right behind you, though.

I just got to thinking after I posted my reply, what with farting &amp\\; picking boogers while riding, have we gotten that hard up for new topics?&nbsp\\; Jeese!

Greetings,
&nbsp\\;
One would think we'd all be too busy riding to be worrying about things like this! LOL

Next to riding and you-know-what, farting and picking boogs are two of my favorite things.
