So this is why cycling shorts need to be tight round the legs?

  1. I found this amongst the Sheddi and it amused me greatly.

    Quoted message said:


    Motorcyclist Moses Rickleberger underwent emergency treatment in the East Florida Baptist Hospital
    for an injury to his private parts on the final day of the Daytona Bike Week. Lawyers for American
    National Airways are at present awaiting Mr Rickleberger's discharge to issue a writ for $30
    million while Miss Amy Listroper is leading a class action on behalf of passengers.

    In the spirit of the Daytona Bike Week, Mr Rickleberger was riding his Buell motorcycle along
    Interstate 4 dressed only in a T shirt, baggy shorts and a bandana. As he was approaching the
    Deland Airport exit, an insect, later identified as a European Hornet, flew up the leg of his
    shorts and stung his left testicle.

    Mr Rickleberger reportedly tried to smack the insect in an effort to kill it but succeeded only in
    injuring himself further. Mr Rickleberger apparently snatched open the throttle of the motorcycle
    as he reared back in pain. He then veered off the highway, descended into a drainage ditch and was
    launched over the perimeter fence and on to the wing of an American National Airways Fokker taxing
    on the runway on a scheduled flight to Miami. The bike landed on the right wing and embedded itself
    in the cabin, causing the pilot to abort the flight and order an emergency evacuation of the plane.

    Mr Rickleberger had divested himself of his shorts and was rolling around on the runway holding
    his crotch and screaming obsenities. Miss Litsroper said "We were all terrified that we were being
    attacked by a mad biker trying to hijack the plane. It was completely terrifying. He was a very
    big man."

    Despite the fact that the $29 milion turbo-prop aircraft was written off in the incident, black
    civil rights campaigners describe the American National Airways' intended lawsuit as "excessive and
    a clear case of institutional and blatant race discrimination."
