I've had to whizz mid-race and it can be a bit...messy.

If it is a hot day or you are feeding in liquid form there is a lot of water that needs to go somewhere. Maximal efforts on a full bladder are hell.

I've had a team mate push me while I've peed (hand on the small of the back and push). I've stopped and peed (I knew the race leader had to go so I stuck with him and the guy helping him. When they stopped, I stopped. We peed. When they chased back on, I sucked wheel).

Don't know how many times I've stopped during the neutral start to go.

When ya gotta, ya gotta.
