In a recent survey carried out by Bicycling magazine, 50 per cent of men and 58 per cent of women said that, if they had to choose between bikes or sex… they’d choose the bikes. Man, their sex lives must be bad. [Bicycling; Image: Martin Pettitt]

Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 11:35 AM‘bad in sex’, hey? Also, loser has one o.
And why the hostility? The author didn’t say All bike riders have bad sex lives.
Its amusing how so many people, like yourself, get so defensive when someone cracks a joke about sexual inadequacy. Lighten up.

Friday, February 10, 2012 at 10:33 PMIf it’s the kind that slip into the tight shiny Lycra, covered in all sorts of sponsor logos even though they’re not actually pro riders, then I’m not too surprised. Wearing a costume outfit when you ride makes you a tool.
If a motorbike rider got dressed up like a motorcross rider every time he went out, or a car driver dressed up like he was in the Bathurst 1000 each time they went for a drive we’d rightly think there was something amiss.

Friday, February 10, 2012 at 11:39 PMOzoneocean: your response is that of a typcial dumbass. would you go and play tennis in just a cotton tshirt? how about scuba diving with no wetsuit (in cold water).
The lycra that cyclists wear is for a reason. Would you really ride 70km+ in normal shorts? probably not because by the time you hit 40 or 50km you might be getting a little itchy. the lycra that cyclists wear is specific for the sport. like clothing for any other sport, its there to serve a purpose. Also people buy that stuff with the logos because they want to support the team, not because they are a “tool”.

Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 7:53 AMI still don’t understand why people take such offense to bike gear. We know it’s the proper thing to wear, but hell I’ll admit I look like a tool when I’m wearing my riding gear. In any case he’s not saying there’s anything wrong with wearing lycra – just lycra with sponsor labels on it and trying to look like a pro. The equivalent is ricer boys who put GReddy, Blitz etc stickers all over the sides of their cars when the only things they’ve done to their cars are a phat exhaust and some blingy wheels.

Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 7:01 PMI ride 80km in shorts and a tshirt everyday on a bike I found in hard rubbish 6 years ago. It’s pretty funny riding past tools who are out of breath halfway up a hill dressed like Cadel Evans tryhards.

Monday, February 13, 2012 at 3:05 PM” would you go and play tennis in just a cotton tshirt? ”
Umm Yes. Well, a pair of shorts as well.
Funny enough, it’s never caused any issues with my tennis playing.
” Would you really ride 70km+ in normal shorts? ”
Err YES! Likewise when I ride my pushbike. Pair of shorts and a tshirt. PLUS I leave my leg hair alone. Not trying to get the extra .000001 sec off my lap times or look like a try-hard.

Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 1:31 AMAccording to a fertility specialist I once spoke to, frequent cyclists are more likely to have trouble conceiving due to the frequent pressure on their sausage and rissoles.
And when they do conceive, they are much more likely to have girls, as Y-chromosome carrying sperm are less susceptible to heat stress.

Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 12:13 PMRubbish. If you have asaddle that fits you don’t have any problem with fertility or erections.
And, I was told by our gyno, that Y-chromosone sperm are more likely in sportsmen, for some scientific reason. Not because of heat.
What idiotic dribble!

Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 8:02 AMThe survey was on bicycling magazine, hardly a representative sample. Some of those readers would have sex with their bikes if they could.

Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 9:10 AMI can’t imagine the sex would be too good if you like having your junk squashed for more than an hour a day…

Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 4:20 PMYou sound like a fatty Debs. A Lycra, exercise hating fatty. But that’s cool the world needs fat chicks too.

Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 9:19 AMWe manage, Deb, we manage. If you stand up off your seat a lot it allows for some readjustment and much needed venting.
