It is one of the wonderful things about touring in France. When a French man wants a pee, no matter were he is on the road. He will pull over and in full view, out with the tackle and pee away. No shame no embarassment.
I hate it when you are bursting, struggle to get the gloves off , tackle out oh the relief!!!!! then the agony when you qucikly pull the zip because you hear a car or someone coming. Oh those heavy duty zips, you do not know to continue pulling up the zip and risk amputation or say fuck it and unzip again. The looks you get when you are checking your pride and joy to see if there is any damage done. :'( :eek
Coffee is a diuretic i.e it a substance that makes you pee more.
Nick Sanders (some guy who travels a lot on a bike) recommends (in an article somewhere) that its vital you keep yourself hydrated using water /juice rather than tea/coffee for the above reason.
However..as your over 50 - if you contact Saga then they will send out some panty pad / liners in case you dribble after youv'e shook. I only know this as I've just received some in the post. Gonna kill my wife!!
