One etiquette (sp) rule especially if riding in a group is to check whose behind you and move to the left side if possible otherwise move to the back of the bunch and then do you thang. Otherwise there is no difference in blowing your nose normally except that your doing each nostril seperately. This allows for better pressure so the speak. Just close one side and blow, forcefully. The more snot buildup the better - ugly thought but it's true. So to recap:

1) Turn head to the left
2) Close the right nostril
3) Blow
4) Turn head to the right
5) Close the left nostril
6) Blow

I've tried blowing each nostril when turning my head one way but the "closer" nostril's stuff always seemed to end up on my bike.

YMMV...
