What's your favourite biking smell?
 
After enjoying the fresh leather aroma of my new Alpinestars summer gloves the other day - I wondered what everyone else's preferences are for nasal arousal... :wink:

Cow-poo.

Means that I'm out of town and in the country lanes.


Either that or I'm following a muck-spreader down the High Street :lol:

The exhaust of speedway bikes... No smell like it, it's almost physical- as if you're breathing in solid lumps of exhaust fumes. I think the track dust plays a part too...

So you're not a hay-fever sufferer then.

Me, I like the smell of the inside of my lid (not) :sick:
