Why Cycling shorts should always be black

I prefer a man who likes my mind and trying to keep an eye on a fella with red, white or yellow peekaboo shorts could send me tottering into the bushes and I do hate getting a flat ..

After reading this thread i went into the bathroom and looked at myself from every angle and even made my wife go in the backyard to look in the sunlight and the problem was not that bad. Perhaps it's the brand of shorts or the material, I don't know.

Well you know mate, we just keep moving around from one boy part to the other. Clothing can hide a multitude of sins can it not? Padded bras, black shorts but NOT, it seems, red shorts not - you had whaaaaaaaaaaaaat removed ? Does not sound too exciting!>!> Hope you are recovering ..

When your as poorly endowed as I am, there is not a lot to hide. What I heed is one of those lucky cucumbers to put down my shorts. Funny, I never felt the need to wear a padded bra.

I am recovering OK; I am a bit slower, but there is a bonus. It takes me longer to catch up on the lady cyclists and I have come to appreciate the aesthetics.

Kind regards,
