OK guys and gals you responded to my "Monkey Butt" question and thank you. You have explained why I have not experienced Monkey Butt. The short answer has been that I wear good correct gear.
Now for you "Big Dogs" that do not have baddlers as large as the fuel tanks allowed on the IBR. Not to be sexist but it is the guys I need to hear from.
I read a detailed article (I can't remember where or by whom) written by a lady nurse doing long rides who used an external catheter to solve the problem of controlling the stops for taking care of liquids no longer needed by the body. I have not read any details used for us guys.
I would like to be able to go 300 miles without worrying about being forced to stop for a pee break. I have looked on line at some external catheters. I would like to have some feedback from you guys who have mastered the "pee on the go" art. What do you use other than God given large internal bladders? Name brands would also be helpful.
I have eliminated coffee well before a ride. I use a hydration pack which helps a lot by spreading the water intake over a longer period of time. However, especially after sleeping, I must "go" after about 100 miles and then again after the next 100. Then usually stops every 200. I have become good at discreetly checking my motorcycle equipment along the interstate. I just keep it away from the pipes. About 300 miles without a nature break only stop would be my goal.
One time I did go 12 hours of airplane travel because I had no time between flights plus with a broken leg it was too much trouble to get out of my seat. But I went without drinking any fluids a couple of hours before the first flight and none after the first take off. Can't do that riding. Plus I had an adult diaper on just in case. The diaper is not comfortable on the motorcycle, tried that. 15 minutes was it.
I know part of the problem I have is that I am an old fart heading towards 70. However, I still want to ride a BB1500 Gold and the 50CC. The Gold I must be able to master the pee. The 50CC would just be a little easier at 300 mile intervals.
Your experienced help is appreciated.
