    Bite your tongue will work 95% of the time, just clamp down firmly on it, you'll feel it work.

    And the eyes popping out if your eyes are open when you sneeze, not true. The force required to do this would be more than eyelids could stop. I'm pretty sure closing yours eyes is part of the sneeze process.

    Here's what The Straight Dope has to say about your eyes popping out while sneezing.

    It's nearly impossible to sneeze with your eyes open - I've never managed.

    I flick the visor up just time time...
    But the closing of the eyes and the full-body twitch is a bit, freaky.

    Haven't had the puke in the helmet thing yet though...
    The world will look up and shout "Save Us!", and I'll whisper "no"

    I just sort of pull my best" I am retarded to hell " face and try to direct it downwards and have never had a problem, apart from having to hold one back till I get around the next corner and onto a straight where I can safely close my eyes for a brief second.

    And if I am in a state where chucking my tucker back out is likely, I dont ride- too busy staying near a handy whitel porcelain receptacle

    At least on a bike you can let out a ripping fart and no have to suffer the consequences, unlike those in cages.

    Or do it really well... ride up alongside, stop as if to sort your gloves or something... then let rip and ride off!

    Might compensate for when you get stuck behind some stinking foul exhausting cage
