Stinky glove ride… threw up on my hand

[tracysurf]

Anyone else have a problem with hard climbs on cool dry days and coughing with a dry throat until you vomit? Tried to get in the 5 minute Cholla club, hammered so hard that I got a scratchy, dry throat despite drinking amble water. Barfed on a couple of the hard coughs on my way to Rockit while riding and soiled my glove. You know what, there's really no way to clean up a vomit soiled glove on the trail.

As an aside, didn't make it under 5 minutes.

Ewww...NO!! I'll be sure never to ride behind you on climbs - poop I can handle, puke...no way!!

Don't they have the Poo Bags on the trails? This would have been a single glove, Michael Jackson ride after this. Time to look for glove specials at your LBS.

Was racing MX at Elsinore and happened to get a holeshot, never had I been in the lead so I pushed harder than ever, by the 3rd lap of 6 I threw up in my full face helmet, I pulled off and tried to lift the helmet off in time to no avail with the strap still buckled. Oh yea, some got on the glove! :lol: It was cold dry air. Those were the best 3 laps of my life! :bang:

You went DEEP in the redzone. I do this on just about every Enduro stage that I race, that is the breathing part, not the puking part!

The worst is when you're riding behind someone who decides to blow a snot rocket and you get hit by the residual spray.

So wait, breathing is Enduro?

Get that stuff out of the way when you are young, that would give me a heart attack at my age.

I don't know if it's the same thing as you're talking about but when it's dry out I sometimes get phlegm caught in the back of my throat and lungs. Sometimes I'll spend 45-60min trying to hack it up. I've never puked but dry heaved a few times.

Every raced at Fontana? The Fontana hack from sprinting the wall is a rite of passage! :bang:
