Riding With Allergies
http://ridefl.wordpress.com/ 2008/ 03/ 30/ riding-with-allergies/
Spring’s coming on, and in Florida, March means pollen counts in the 9 to 10 range (considered high to very-high). Riding when you have pollen allergies can be miserable, and dangerous. I try to stay off any kind of medication when I’m riding, because there’s nothing worse than feeling drowsy or blurry-eyed on the road (we’re talking allergies right now). Of course, sneezing constantly is no fun either. What causes pollen allergy reactions? A grain of pollen looks like a very spiky sea urchin. When it enters your nasal and bronchial passages, it latches onto the mucous membranes and gets stuck.
