Oh- white bike shorts are the worst!!
During the Tour I just wanted to scream...no white shorts! They should be outlawed !Especially in the rain.
During the Olympics I noticed a lot of the runners had lycra shorts as well- and again, the coloured shorts seemed to be much more revealing than the black shorts. Unless those guys were...well- you know!
Anyway, my humble, professional artist inspired explanation is the reflection of light...
in other words, the colour of black shorts is denser, and doesn't allow for the reflection of light waves off the material the same way lighter colours do...
hence... WHITE SHORTS SHOULD BE OUTLAWED!!!!
