Cigars and riding
So I'm an avid cigar smoker, smoking one as I'm posting this, and enjoy smoking while riding. Issue I have is the wind tends to smoke the cigar faster than I smoke the cigar
Any other smokers smoke while riding? And does a windshield help?
I'm on a My Father Le Bijou gran robusto kick at the moment, they are made by Don Pepins kid I think, what's everyone else smoking?

I smoke cigs when riding. I had the stock windshield and lowers on the ultra classic and they burned a little faster than normal. I have the 4" on for summer and took off the lowers and they burn really fast now.

Bought a new ultra limited, pushed the button in and lit a cigar as i rode her off the lot. Not much help I guess but I will say that I smoke a 2 hour cigar in an hour now instead of setting it down on the bench in the shop and forgeting/ neglecting it. Love cigars, my riding buddie only gets half the miles out of a stogie on his honda vtx with no windshield.
Break it down:
If you ride and smoke like I do you will save enough money on good cigars to justify a windshield and lowers or a new limited.... Yea probably should call BS on myself here but makes for good whiskey math

I tried to get my wife to quit smoking for years (I quit in '95). I gave up and puffed on the occasional cigar (never made it near my lungs) so that I could stand being around her.
This summer I went through treatment for head and neck cancer.
There is nothing good about smoking... if you survive the treatment you will agree with me. And yes, I will miss sitting around with a cold brew, my pals, and a good robusto. Nothing will make me go through again what I just went through, though.

not a cigar smoker, but cig's. I run a W/S and lowers on my FB and can smoke a cig going 70 mph. I've watched the ashes from my cig's get sucked forward, then up and over my head. obviously they'll burn a little faster, but i try and rest my hand down in frt of me and it helps a good bit.
