I know it is a problem as even when a long ride goes great, I never have to stop to pee. Ever. If hydrated well, I thought over 3hrs riding plus 10min stoppage time you'd need to pee.
I've been riding solo and when it's hot I take a 70oz Camelbak plus 2 large bottles for a 4 hour ride and still get dehydrated a bit. I plan for a pee stop someplace discreet and I will stop even if I don't feel the need because I don't want to have to look for a bathroom back in town.
I don't like bottles in the jersey and they are annoying even after you empty them. I've used disposable bottles, meh. I tried putting on a handle bar bag and putting 2 bottles in there but prefer the Camelbak.
