Cycling etiquette?

No where yet have I seen what to do when a rider has forgotten that an excess of pies over christmas has strected their old shorts to failing point. Ok it's sure fire technique to stop others from following too close, but is it the done thing to mention their hairy arse is on display?

Thanks in advance for clearing this up for me.

    What you should do in this situation is pop a wheelie and park your front wheel in the offending site. You will get a decent tow and he'll never make the same mistake again. Everyone's a winner.

    It's the new fashion. Everyone seems to be doing it. Including me. :oops:
    I ride a bike. Doesn't make me green or a tree hugger. I drive a car too.

    this is the reason nobody over 70kgs should ever, ever, ever wear white lycra!.... or perhaps that should be no males?

    Sounds like a malfunctioning pie-royd gland problem.

    On a ride before one guy had a hole in the back of his shorts and his arse was actually on display, he had to put a glove there to cover the hole when he found out.
  • my mate went out once with his shorts inside out :shock:

    it took him a while to figure out why we were all laughing at him :D

    Really thin lycra that is over-stretched really not a good look. Buy him some over-shorts.
