I may not've been the first to say it, but that's definitely how I check bike shorts! They had a bunch of Cannondale shorts at TJ Maxx once and my striped underwear was visible through ALL of them.


More on-topic, I was running behind a guy mountain biking in shorts that had white kind of around the top of the back...like a wide stripe-ish. Definitely saw some crack. I couldn't quite go fast enough to pass him, either...
