Default Flatulence Relief

I looked around and don't see this discussed but I think it's important. I've always noticed, when riding, that it can be difficult to vent the pipes. Something about being on the scoot just puts the inner and outer sphincter at odds and fighting over to allow passage or hold until we can stop.

My choice to vent doesn't seem to matter as long as I am in a standard position. Personally, I push against the driver seat back and lift my pelvis up, allowing the trapped bubble off last night's squander to escape.

Is it normal to have difficulty farting when on the bike? What is your approach to releasing the demons from below?

Guess it’s time to buy a set of clip-ons and rear sets

Use a beaded seat cover to allow for the glasses to escape.

It's around the corner from me, I can assure you it's not. Maybe it's a methane cloud?

Pipes? As in more than one?

This reminds me so much of the Clarky Butt Test from another forum.

As always, beware the lumps!
