Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Trackstand peeing

Wouldn't the thrust push you backwards?

Peeing while not moving is for wussies. Pee while riding.

edit: And I was kinda hoping that guy would accidentally pee on his hand or bike. Shame on him for riding a track bike with rear disk through his own piss, too.

I tried it once on my MTB way out on the Colorado Trail (bet a friend his last clif bar that I could do it). I wasn't able to relax enough to get it started. I did manage to get the shorts pulled up and back down, and the junk repositioned w/out dabbing though. I got one bite of the clif bar for my efforts.

Hahah... you did much better than I could manage, so that bite of the clif bar was well earned.

Why don't you guys just use the pee absorbing pad? I have two pairs of bike shorts, and they both came with a pad...

We were still 18 miles out on a 6.5 hour, 45-mile, technical and secluded MTB ride covering 8 major climbs. No toilet, and no sink. Turns out, if you hold the wrapper and don't eat it, you don't have to worry about it. This little escapade was nothing compared to all the mud, stream crossings, sweat, and swatted mosquitoes already on my hands

Have you ever been mountain biking?

I can take off all my clothes while track-standing. I've done it twice.

Never seen a hipster with a rear disk before.

Is there a practical use for this ability?

Fascinating. Depending on the acidity of your pee, you may be risking inadvertant paint removal. You really should get a Ti Frame and practice peeing on that.

You can then ride your bike through a car wash and not worry about rust and pee residue

My teammate saw a photo of a rider peeing off to the side in le Tour in 1995, accomplished by being supported by a teammate who was also supported by a 3rd teammate. Naturally, my teammate decided to duplicate it when there were three of us on a training ride... while riding around a posh neighborhood.

It's idiocy but, I'll agree, funny. The "thrust pushing you backward" comment reminded me of this:
