People really shouldn't be taking a pee-pee and talking on their cell phone right in the middle of a trail, especially when a forty something mother of two decides to ride one of her local trails after dinner to get out and breathe and get some exercise, even though she knew she wouldn't hit the trail until 7:00 p.m. (doesn't get dark yet here in NE until after 8:30). It's where she goes when she doesn't want to go far, and still has plenty of rocks and roots and single track off the main trails to keep it interesting enough for a good 10 mile ride. But, I didn't expect to see Fountain Man with his pants down right in the middle of the trail when I turned the corner. I really didn't need to see that... it was a little too much nature for me.

I hope you laughed out loud at him, and he heard you!
Even my boy-child learned at the ripe old age of 4 1/2 that one goes pee-pee behind a tree or shrub in emergencies, and at the very least NOT on surfaces which people must traverse.

Jeez, if I have to take a nature break I try to hide behind a tree!
At my local trail tonight there was a band, drums, sax, who knows what else. They were pretty terrible probably got kicked out of the house by their mom or wife. It was pretty odd. No peeing men this time. I have rode up on someone, I laughed hysterically which probably made him a bit self conscious!

It was hysterical. The look on his face when he saw me on the bike and how fast he scurried into the woods. Odd thing is that there were plenty of trees for him to hide behind and I would never had seen him. I guess he thought, no one would be coming by at the time, but it's always pretty busy in the area and there's a soccer field right in the middle of the trail system w/plenty of people still out playing, don't know what he was thinking. Oh well, I got in a good laugh tonight, which I needed.

*snork*
Good thing i'm not drinking anything at the moment..
That happened to me @ a 4hr event a few weeks ago..I came to a bit of singletrack w NO passing space & a dude's doing a wee on the side..I blurted out "Oh, WTH.. ooops" and laughed whilst trying to look ahead..
I have to confess..I don't always pick the greatest tree watering places. I have made friends w grass trees
