    I would love to wear white but find that white clothes:
    a) are see through
    b) are easy to get dirty
    c) make me look fat

    Maybe that's why my entire wardrobe is black!

    Trust me, most shorts are black for a reason!!!

    Also, you ladies aren't making me feel any better about the white capris I'm planning on wearing to a fancy shower this weekend!!! I had already decided I wouldn't eat anything and drink only water! I'll probably trip on the sidewalk and go down! I'm a total slob!

    I am a dirt magnet. No white shorts! I'm okay with a little white on the side of the leg as an accent, but not with all-over white.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Probably only good for wearing if you have a white saddle...

    And you definitely need to be sure the lawn is well manicured if you are going to wear white shorts............

    <snort> OMG, Bike Chick...

    I could not find the thread but someone, a long time ago, raved about the white Assos shorts in this forum. In those, only the front is white in the current vintage of shorts (the older ones had more white).

    Haha!! So true!! Wear white panties at home to test how it looks before venturing out with your white bike shorts.

    I have a bit of cellulite so if I wear white pants anyone will be able to see through them and I think it will look kinda of like cottage cheese.
