Cycle racing. Long hours in the saddle. How to pee while racing? For the men, pull to the side of the road. But what about the women? Modern cycling outfits are all-in-one, you can't take it all off in public, so what are the ladies of road racing to do?
There are a few full races recorded on youtube, hours of footage and I haven't seen any obvious peeing.
Or have I? This video: youtube.com/watch?v=6asLvGkTkEc of the 2017 French women's championships is three-plus hours long, and I didn't see anyone stop...
But I did notice something odd. It was a sunny day, dry roads, but one (only one) of the cameras recording seemed to be covered in water droplets... This camera motorbike was covering the back of the peloton; where some of the riders were hanging back in places.
This clip from around the 47 minute mark looks to me like one rider peeing in the saddle, and the camera crew right behind her getting a surprise!
