Not a cyclist, just here from “All” on a slow Friday afternoon. But I am a country boy.

If it’s just piss, hang brain wherever there is some seclusion. Ain’t no one gonna care, unless you’re pissing on someone’s lawn that is.

If you have to shit, well that’s a different story. Shit before you go is the best strategy. But in cases of emergency, find a bush with a tree trunk you can grab onto and let ‘er rip. Leaves or a clean stick will deal with most of the nasty, but it might be good to keep a tissue or two in the fanny pack.

Bear in mind no one wants to see you shitting in the wild. Seclusion is much more important in this case.

I don't typically ride in the middle of nowhere but if I did, I'd probably just find a secluded area and go about my business. If I was planning to go riding where there was no infrastructure at all, I'd definitely bring a trowel and some wipes + sanitizer to bury the dookie and clean up. Basically try to leave no trace like in regular camping.

If you're travelling with a pack, bring TP / Wet wipes / hand sanitizer and a hand spade. Pee wherever you can, if you desperately need a crap, use the hand spade to stab a 6-9" circle in the ground, pop out the dirt as a 'plug' do your best to drop your dookie in there, top with the TP, and put the plug back. Not optimal, but more than bare minimum. If you miss, use the plug to push the bizness into the hole.

Pack your own water, use the restroom before you leave. Unless you suffer from some kind of bowel distress ailment, you should be good for four hours or so at a minimum, probably a lot longer.

I exclusively ride in the middle of nowhere. If I need to take a piss I stop my bike and step off the trail for a leak and if I need to take a dump which fortunelately has only happened once I then just walk a bit further away from the trail. This would be much more of an issue in urban areas but in rural areas not the slightest. I've never been worried about ticks. I spend quite a bit time in the woods.

If you have to poop in the wild on a regular basis, carry a plastic trowel. You can buy one designed for the purpose of digging out and filling in a cathole.

from a life of needing to go...

in the begining I am very picky about location. however, the standards drop in relation to the desperation.

the more desperate the quicker the deed.

I always have a bit of toilet paper when I'm out running. that's the prep. also a wet wipe or two for my hands.

One option I haven't seen suggested is a wag bag. They're a bag you do your business into that solidifies everything and makes it safe to dispose into the nearest garbage can. You'll see them used by no-trace backpackers, climbers, and dispersed campers. Carry one in your bike's bag and rest assured you have a fast and traceless method.

Don't forget to bring sanitizer or dry leaf soap for hand cleaning.

I use Cleanwaste brand, but there are plenty of choices out there. Find a local manufacturer of them.

Additionally, carry extra TP or bring a bottle-top bidet. The kits tend to not have much TP included.

I fill up drinking water at wells, cafes or restaurants, pee just by the road, poo i also only do once a day, in the morning. This is especially true while on tour, the poo thing. Have to get out of the tent real quick when i wake up, but then i'm done for a day.
