So I was riding back into a decent head wind at the Harvest Half yesterday and while I was eating a gel this nice girl passed me on the bike. I put my flask back in my jersey and put my head down into the wind get up to pass her back when all of the sudden I sensed this full body mist? I looked up because I thought it was raining or something? Then get this, I saw her hammer the pedals 5 or 6 times, start to coast and then she let loose a decent squirt which hit me again! I couldn’t believe it. WTF this isn’t rain this chick is fricking pissing on me! This time I was well into the draft zone. Then she started to pedal hard 10 or so times and the second I saw her coast I immediately swerved out to the center of the road (traffic be damned) when she let the mother load go. Damn it was like two pints or something! It was truly an amazing amount of fluid. I would have been fricking covered from head to toe.
Ok folks first of all unless you are going to win your age group I’m not sure why people would want to piss all over themselves, their shoes, bike, water bottles etc. Geez on a 5 hour race you can take 50 seconds on the side of the road? And for the love of god before you piss yourself don’t freaking pass someone and/or at least take a quick look behind you before you let it rip! /rant
Shit if I wasn’t that far back it wouldn’t have taken me that long to get by her and I probably would have escaped the second misting. With that wind it fanned her tire and would have gotten a 7 man peloton!
Did you post on one of those “golden shower” websites? I bet they’d love to hear about it.
This seems to be a variation of my “snot rule” IF you are within snotting distance (sideways or behind) then you are drafting! Therefore you deserve what you get.
That settled, that pig should be shot. I mean, urinating in public? That’s gross. And to think at IMNZ this year, they got all precious about people stopping and peeing in a farmers driveway!
(I stop at portaloos when nature calls) 13 hours plus is still 13 hours plus, even if I peed on the bike, so I stop.
LOL awesome. I have nailed several people with snot rockets and yes one chick with my urine - all were drafting - so I had little to no sympathy. Of course we look back… that’s the whole point!
FWIW tho I have only ever let the bladder empty once on the bike- it just feels too gross to be sullying my saddle, shoes etc. like that. ut it kinda did feel good to know that the drafter-chick dropped right back off and let me be for the reest of the bile (30k or so).

That’s the last thing I want to do is encourage it. Although maybe I could make some ad revenue?
If there is a next time I need to note the bib number for the posting of a pic. Would that be too mean?
After years and years of riding, can coming into all sorts of crazy situations, I’m now getting good at getting license numbers, bib numbers etc for further reference if needed.
For example, I remember number 525 from a tri a bunch of years. OK, so that was just because she was hot and I could troll the results to find out who she was! I saw her at the same race the next year, called her by name and introduced myself. We danced a few dances at the after party, emailed a few times and now wave to each other and catch up at races from time to time. But I digress! LOL
Yeah great I can see it now. I’m racing next year and come up to her to introduce myself. Hey you remember pissing on yourself during the Harvest last year? Yeah some of that got on my face, want to dance? Then at the group ride… hey this is my friend Jenny(?), we were total strangers until she pissed on me. We’ve been great friends ever since. No don’t worry I’ll pull today.
Usually that costs 100 dollars extra. Not that I’d know.
And be happy to take your electrolytes wherever you can get them. That gel was rendered obsolete.

Hey, you said she was nice. Who cares how you meet, as long as you meet. Bed her a few times and on to the next one? It’s not like you are going to marry her, she’s a disgusting pig. But at least you can get some benefit from meeting her and even up the score a bit! LOL
