and why is so freakin difficult? or is it just me?

Cynikal 

Just relax, wasn't this discussed last year or something?

"Fixie" riders don't fart. They glow.

Low3rthird

You're kidding right? I mean are you serious?

You just lift your butt andf let it go. C'mon, man.

It was even discussed about this time of year, as well. Must be the weather.

As with anything you do one a fixie, you do it smoothly.

bikeordie

no way, not kidding. i could be ready to blow and nothing. not a damn thing. the constant leg motion has got me all blocked up!

akky

that's funny, didn't think other will share the problem.

How tragic! I think you need to practice in a safe controlled environment. Maybe you could start on some rollers in your home, then work your way outside? Baby steps. Some tuna casserole will help as well. Just because your bike is a low emissions vehicle doesn't mean it should be completely emissions free.

i can fart fine on my fixie. just ask those who have ridden behind me.

it's like a double stealth attack. you know the "silent but deadly" types? combine that with a the stealthness of a fixie and you are a weapon of ass destruction on wheels.

STEEKER

Well most Fixies ride very fast and dogde around so catching one is tough plus if they know what your trying to do they will split or throw something at you or in your spokes

Get a split seat.
It worked for me.

Enjoy

i'm a habitual crop duster. all that pedal pushing must be churning something in my bowels. i've never let one off that someone's actually noticed though. something to aim for.

Relax your ass, then let it rip. Make sure its a fart tho. On another note, I know someone who swears up and down they sucked in a nasty fart in their mouth from some fat dude while riding and threw up. Gave me a chuckle.

bikes are supposed to be environmentally friendly. methane is worse than co2. shame on you all.

you reckon that's hard?
you should try bleeding the lizard without wetting your leg!

Can't say it's ever posed a problem for me. That said, stop lights do provide a nice opportunity to de-pressurize.

rwan

this is a great thread.

Bikeophile

While riding your fixie? no WAY!

Martyr

you are right - some things are best enjoyed standing still, or at least coasting while turned downwind and preferably at the back of the bunch. i seriously doubt that it would be possible to strain the spuds on FG so it was a thought in jest :-)


cheers

Ive screamed, kick, throwen it in a ditch. But I have never farted on it... I have more respect.

Martyr

you might have hit upon bikeordie's problem.
you can't really fart _on_ it. that would be somewhat like trying to breath through your mouth with your hand over it. you'd suffocate like that. you have to lift your bugle and point it somewhere else. you take that barking spider and you send it - behind, to the side, wherever - but you dont plant it on the saddle.

yeah, i havent been able to successfuly let one go yet

Jaminsky

Hah, I've been thinking about this all day...I'm pretty sure that it totally depends on your saddle. For instance, my Arione is terrible for trying to squeeze one out, always have to stand out of the saddle at least at inch. Maybe I'll try leaning.

upthebikepunx

my first good solid ride on a fixie and i was blowing that out like a bugle. i don't understand what the problem with you lads is.
