do you pee off your bike?

This is the funniest thing I've ever read on the internet! I do not race but ride as a hobby....my events are the MS 150 rides with "rest stops" every 10 miles. I'm a wife and mother...so...NO!! I don't go off the bike!!

Most American women would rather DIE than use a port-a-john. On the MS 150 rides, their port-a-potties are an oasis!! I don't go much on long rides, but after 50 miles I grab a file folder from the MS desk, take it into the port-a-john, drop my shorts and FAN MY ARSE!!! Anything to relieve chafing!!

I overheard a conversation among fellow amateur bikers where they DO THE SAME THING on long bike tours!!!

michele my belle,

I'm amazed that you came in on this one. I have long been puzzled why this lot simply don't wash their bikes down with warm soapy water as I do.

I love my bike far to much to spray it with urine. It's never suggested that it would go for a golden shower either!

There are ways to avoid chafing, try cutting the legs off a pair of panty hose and wearing it under your bike gear.

Kind regards

Desitin is the thing for the dreaded chafe...It works for babies...why not try it- I use it regularly in my bike shorts...
Which adheres my genitalia to my midsection with so much goop that if I were to try and pee off my bike, I would probably do so in my own face- I try to reserve that treat for my adoring public
Scoffin- check the thread on crapping (it'll liberate you further)
I had best go to bed-I'm getting crass
The desitin really does work (and James- how the hell do you know about hoisery)
Cheers

TS,

Its something I discovered many years ago when I was carrying a particularly nasty injury that used to start bleeding on long rides. The doctor put me onto it. The wife thought I'd turned a bit multicultural but went along with it and it worked.

So Sam I even used it when I played rugby a couple of times. The word got around and some of them used to worry also.

I use it to this day, its recycling of sorts.

KInd regards,

BICYCLING this month has an hilarious photo of Hinault, in the yellow jersey, peeing off a bridge. I guess The Badger had the power to either
1) catch up to the peleton
2) demand the peleton stop for a pee break

does that count?

OK, just read all 15 pages of this topic.

I've gotta say, all respect to the ppl that do it. you must seriously love cycling.

I don't even race, so i would just stop, or find some public loos, but then again the longest ride i've done is only 55 miles, so It's not that much of a problem. (that was on a non-racing bike) - I've only just got a racing bike, and it's not really the best weather!

Interesting alternative angle on this.....

Paula Radcliffe (long distance runner- yes the one that dropped out of the race in the olympics) was on a tv chat show here in blighty last night. (Frank Skinner for anyone also from UK).

She actually admitted to taking a crap whilst running in a race! Franks obvious question was "didn't anyone notice"?

Her reply was along the lines that she was so focused on the particular race, and she desperately needed to "go" as it was causing her pain, that she just did what she had to do!

Personally, I think I'd be really worried about the steamer popping out of the leg of my shorts

I just came across this post from Michele last February and it reminded me of a story. My boss, who spent her life as about as unathletic a woman as you might find, took up "spinning" classes a few years ago. From that grew her desire to ride one of the long charity rides -- I believe it was from Richmond, Va. to Washington, D.C. She trained for it and we all were proud of her when she completed it.
As she was telling us all the details later we suddenly realized that never before in her life had she been subjected to a port-a-john. She said, "And I couldn't believe that some gross guy had peed in the SINK!"
When we stopped laughing we told her, "Boss, that wasn't a sink!"

how do hang glider pilot's go wee wee?

James Bruce Gil

Z,

I don't know about hangliders, as I've never tried the sport. I suppose you could say they p*ss on us from a great height.

When I was in the army they made us all jump out of aeroplanes with parachutes.

The first time, I was like the little pig that went to market; I went wee wee wee all the way home (to mother earth)!

Kind regards,
