Why bicycle shorts tend to be black

Thanks to Prof. J.G. for the visual aids....

Although wearing bicycle shorts by definition makes you look like some kind of incontinent deviant, the color choice should not be taken lightly.



As you can see the standard black bicycle shorts leaves you looking like a douchebag, but for the gentleman who spends large chunks of time rubbing his groin against a lightly padded metal contraption, a look at the alternatives might offer some insight into why black could be the way to go:

Not picking on your typing there, pigeon. Just amazed that you manage to pick a favorite among a bunch of men strutting their stuff in a pair of tight pants...

Not sure whether "strut" can be used to accurately portray what can ge gathered from the visuals here, Chief.

"Is that a pencil stub in your bicycle pants, or are ya just happy to see me under these frezing conditions?"

Then again, phrasing such a question might constitute a self-owning of galactic proportions - who knows
