...I don't get it ? Are you hiking or riding ? There are dedicated hiking forums, so ask on one of them if you're hiking.

The English Major, correction; the English Minor, author uses the verb 'clinch' when 'clench' was the obvious term needed. This is an unforgivable lapse in an o.p. that was already well into foul territory.

Maybe. Unknown is what the wife is wearing. If it's a State Issued orange jumpsuit, wouldn't you agree the Depends™ wearer starts to look pretty good?

Dear God, this thread was a disaster before I ever posted it.

No lifting required.

Glad I could contribute in a meaningful way.
I imagine using a leather saddle with a cutout will allow you to change the tone, like a comb wrapped in wax paper.

Not necessarily. If the jumpsuit type, then you can go for your conjugal visit and leave. Dont have to worry about personal habits or whether a saddle makes her butt look big. But, then the chain thread becomes more important.

I'm not sure which side I hike to when dropping ass on the bike. I do have large cut outs in my saddle so I may try the aero lean and see if I can drop one through the cut out.

Also you may want to pack some baby wipes or ass ointment. If you shart and have a long way to go ur gonna wanna detail that taint to avoid irritation.

Someone on here has got to have a collection of Bicycling Magazine issues from the mid 90's. In one is an article on cycling and flatulence. While having some real and serious information, the article also sought to use every word in the book, starting with the innocuous "flatulence" and "passing gas" and degrading to "barking spider" and "stepping on a duck". Really wish I had asked my dad for those issues before I moved out.

Good old fashioned common sense right there.

A couple years ago, mods here deleted an actually useful discussion I’d started about taking an early morning pre-ride dump.

Apparently habits to avoid a roadside “strip and squirt” violates community standards.

So I won’t comment on your flatulence, it may condemn your thread.

For starters, dump Cheryl. Any girl friend who does not appreciate a good fart .. . . that's just the start of her trying to "reform" you. Next thing you know, she'll ask "Do you HAVE TO pee on trees?"

Are you left handed or right handed? If right, then lifting the left cheek would be considered "natural" and the right cheek "goofy". There is an argument to be made that this whole thread is goofy.

I did 34 miles this morning. After standing to cut one loose, I thought of this thread. I guess I mix up my technique for some unknown reason.
