Well it's taken me some years, but -

I am now officially a member of the sneezed all over the inside of the bloody visor club.

Just to make it more fun it was pissing down.

Congratulations! - I think.....

woohoo!! always nice to welcome another member!

Gashuntite !

Better set 'em up in the bar, then

Is that Coventry for Gesundheit?

Thing is, I'd always thought it was unpossible.
I've ridden about with a cold enough times.
Something always seemed to turn sneezing off with a hat on.

Seems it is entirely possible to cover all of the inside of a visor except for the top inch or so

I'll get the drinks in.

I find looking at the light helps when you want to sneeze

Gas ..... as in neither solid nor liquid
Hunt .... as in to search diligently for something
ite .... as in the suffix used to describe someone who does the preceding things

Therefore a Gashuntite is a person who searches for gas.

It has nothing to do with sneezing on a visor - I just thought it the right moment for a random word.


(ok, fair enough - you got me there)

That'll be the Photic Sneezing Reflex.
I understand those of us with blue eyes are more susceptible to this.

If I come out of a building into bright sunlight I always have a sneezing fit

This makes sense. Less likely to sneeze with a hat on because you're in the shade.
