Sheepee

Has anyone used or have any views on the Sheepee? It seems like a good idea.
But would love to hear from anyone who has tried one out.

Thanks very much, yes it appears to be the same thing as a shewee. Had only previously heard of it being referred to as a shepee

I had a shewee but never used it in the end, in any of my trips. There is always a a bush, or dip or worse come to worse use the bike as a screen. My point of view is that whoever would get a glimp of my bum will eventually recover! I don't care

More seriously, even in vietnam where it was hard to find privacy, I always managed to find a hidden spot.
On the altiplano in south america, where it was all flat and no bushes, I just walked far enough away from the road. Just be pragmatic!

Cheers xx

I have a whizz, it is made of softer silicone and is easier to use.

I have used it in the tent into a wee bottle or similar, when it has been too cold /raining to leave the tent, or I have had a gang of men loitering once and was too scared to go to the loos at night, and could stay in the tent.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
