Is it OK to pass wind in on a bicycle?

I do have a good story....

I was riding the Boston-Cape Cod and going up a hill. And at some point, I needed to let it rip. And so I did...not realizing someone has snuck up on me and was drafting...

I apologized, but he said "No problem man. I saw you move your ass and 'give the signal' "

You winked? Was that the signal?

I would call that jet propulsion.

I would be more concerned that the guy behind you was watching your ass.

BTW, all is fair in the great outdoors, let it rip.
