Ha, ha, ha. Suzie and Ellen should read this thread. They are two other TE members.

We did a 72-miler on Saturday and for some reason it was hard to find the porta potties on that ride. It seemed like we spent miles and miles swiveling our heads looking for the porta potties. We finally found one, and Ellen went in it and it tipped over. I don't think Ellen thought it was funny, but I did.

Have this thread become a resource on how to find the porta potties. Here are my hints:

1. The far side of farmers' fields, but you have to get off the bike and trudge across the field, and then it might tip over.
2. Behind rural and small town schools there are porta potties, but you have to bike in and go behind and look.

Otherwise, carry tissue with you, go down a side road, go behind a bush or tree, and make sure there is no poison oak.

And don't count on a porta potty remaining in the same spot. The farmers move them and the schools move them.
