Na! Na! Just see things you wouldn't normally see with regular shorts. I dont really want to get descriptive though. Let me just say, if you aren't a natural blond and you don't want anyone to know, then these shorts shouldn't be worn.

Have shown this to several of the men in my lives... we were thinking about red shorts as our "team" colours (6 of us in the family will be riding by the end of next year...) but methinks the men in the family are rethinking that colour choice...
I said I'd have no problem wearing red! LOL... I have no bulge... (not there anyways )
Def a candidate for "thread of the week" if we had such a nomination!

hmmm...my team's shorts are red, can't say I've ever noticed this um, "problem" before. Of course I generally keep my eyes averted from that area.

We aren't too racy, just well-red.
I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out.

My cycling coach has these blue shorts and i think he only has blue shorts. I think it might be worse than the red. They just stand out so well.

I told my husband (he is away will show the picture when he returns) not to go buying any red shorts. Originally Posted by Zub_Zub

From what I've seen, navy blue is okay, electric blue is more problematic. Same problem with some flashy green and orange. My guess would be that all "shiny" colors make that because they allow innocent bystanders to see shadows better... Originally Posted by Zub_Zub

bike shorts
Umm..No matter how patriotic cycling teams are i don't think showing your gerbils like that is sexy....that's just plain scary...
The OH sometimes wears lycra to my dismay and i always tease him about showing his gerbils off..
