Here's what I have at home and work. I get lots of comments at work - even from other cyclists. 
FYI: It's from the 2001 TdF, stage 3.

Hey when you gotta go you gotta go, its funny how when yuor watching the tour on OLN they dont show them stopping unless its major. They portray it as they can take like 12 bottle of liquid for the whole time.
