I'm going to put this out there so we don't have people licking their lips and rubbing inner tubes on their body on the side of the road or trail.

Anyway... Put the tube up near your face somewhere. If it is quiet, listen as well. It is much easier to feel the air on your cheek or lips than "elsewhere".
