can you still (or could you ever) pee whilst staying
on and pedaling your bike? do you have to have someone
hold your saddle whilst doing said peeing? do people in
italy pee and if so, do they do it on their bikes?
 
thank you very much.

Soccer is like the NFL and cycling is more like the NHL, very passionate fans, but a minority, sporting fan-wise. At least that's his thoughts on the subject.

How does cycling compare to soccer and other sports in Italy (I know soccer isn't popular at all in Italy, but football is, but since football isn't Football to me, I can't call soccer Football)?   Are there cycling clubs/races for younger folks in italy/what do they do to make sure young folks get into cycling?   Botched I do have a serious question for Andy that has to do with the relative popularity of cycling and how kids are introduced to it.

On the bright side, you are still over 50 years younger than my average personal training client. Andy,
