Being a cyclist for most of my life, I have seen many odd things cyclist do (voluntarily being seen in public wearing lycra being one of them)... but the oddest has got to be the white cycling pant :huh: White shoes, socks, jerseys, saddles, frames, and even wheels I can understand.

 

Now, I can also understand the pro's wearing the white pant (the likes of FdJ, HTC-Columbia et al.), because well... they are paid to wear them...

 

For everyone else who dons the white pant (particularly, but not limited to muddy mtb rides), I have one question: WHY?

I had an interesting conversation the other day with a woman in our group, why women shouldnt wear white shorts.

It took me way out of my comfort zone...

White pants? Nothing... wait until someone rocks up wearing any colour pants, but he doesn't realise that they are totally and utterly transparent through years of use...

 

... and he jumps to the head of the bunch...

 

... and the sun rises slowly over...

 

Yes... it happened.

 

Should get 10-to-life with Bubba in a cell!!

I don't know what you r conversation was about but I saw some of the Bizhub girls at the Campus2Campus yesterday and they do have my permission to wear white shorts.

His FDJ bib shorts got quite wet on the ride yesterday, not a pretty sight :o but wasn't as bad as listening to Frails' yeast infection complaints :blink: :D

Only one possible reason why a guy would wear "a white bicycling pant", and it's the same as why he would wear a pair of knicks that have been washed to a lovely, sheer, translucence....
