Nature break?

Yes, it's etiquette not to tape them doing their potty breaks.

If you're not too shocked yet -
There's an epic story about a famed german rider, now retired, breakfast consisting of a couple bowls of muesli, a call of nature at a critical moment in the race, and a cycling cap.
Plus helpful friends "pushing him along"... I guess you get the idea

[Kiwi Stoker]

I too have heard that team cars pass out cycling caps too as the visor can be used as a handle...

What's with the "ewwww"? Everybody poops. Just not in a hat

[TrekTheKaty]

Then what do you do with the hat? (I said, "do do"--get it?)

Yeah, not in a hat, even with a handle, with people pushing you and other people watching and probably cameras around...I mean, really, how dedicated a teammate do you have to be? Do they make the rookies do the pushing? "Hey, new guy, Fabio has to #2...go give him a push."

:P

LOL, and how are they organizing the #2 pushes with team radios banned? It could get messy!
