Why Bike Shorts are Black . . not Red. :)
OH MY! LOL....
although.. you know....it really is nice to finally have a sport where it's the men's junk that is all pronounced and having to mentally avoid 'eye contact' vs women's chests!!!
It's just a nice change!
:D
I sparingly threaten and have even twice used the second pic on the 4x4 family-safe board when the guys get a little out of control with the chick pics or comments to whip them back in line.
Works like a charm. :D
I've used it here http://forums.teamestrogen.com/showthread.php?t=4116 because many of us appreciate the male biking form...
I think the 2nd to last guy....is FLIPPING us off!!!! :eek::eek:
:eek:
Now every time I get the sartorial urge to try something wild, this image will be seared into my brain. The rest of the cycling world likely thanks the OP in advance....
Blue isn't any better, sometimes.

You don't win world championships by holding anything back...
Gross. This reminds me of a guy with well-worn shorts revealing more than I would have liked. They were black, but the fabric was so stretched and worn out...it had the effect of black sheer pantyhose, really. Seeing his butt was fine, butts are no problem. But when he turned around, good lawd! I didn't say anything because I didn't know him well. I will always check for invisible tights syndrome now, even if they're brand new.
Regarding Picture #1:
As a Man:eek:;):D
I will assure you that the Poles 'posed' for that picture;)
Regarding Picture #2:
As a human:cool:, I can assure you that the thought of diaper rash at age 45 is not an appealing one!:rolleyes:
This is making me rethink buying used saddles.
That and how did it spread UP?
I hope y'all know this is the last thing I see before I go to bed :eek:
Maybe they all smell cinnamon buns.
It may have had something to do with why he won. I sure as hell wouldn't suck his wheel even if I could keep up with him.
:eek::eek::eek:
:p
Oh Zen I did NOT need to read that right after dinner! :eek::eek::D:p
ummm from the looks that photo of the Quick step rider is Paris-Roubaix (that's the only road race I know of that ends in a velodrome at least). What's on the back of dude's shorts is probably mud...(I won't guarantee that though)
I've had mud on the back of my shorts (and jersey) plenty of times, and it never looked like that...

OK - so here's the front of big Tom on that same year. He's covered in what, hmmmmm mud.... OK maybe its dust and sweat, but mixed that makes what? mud. I won't exclaim positively that he did not poo himself, but I rather suspect not.
Note how clean their bikes, socks and shoes are. Also note the distinct lack of poo-looking material on the other guy.
If that's mud, somebody threw it at his butt so it'd look like he dropped a big a big deuce in the saddle. If it's dirt and sweat, one must ask how he managed to get so much dirt in that one spot?
I suppose this fellow was right behind him..... (yes this really is another rider from the same race)

I still think its probably mud.
Ok, that is Tom Boonen at the 2007 PR. I'll buy that.
Someone threw mud at Tom Boonen's butt. Or he sat in it. That's all the farther I'll yield.
So when do we get our TE calendar of half-dressed male cyclists, each of whom has been described by TV commentators as "BIG," smeared all over with mud? :D:D
