Say NO to crack
Guy,
Please stop wearing white shorts/bibs. Your "friends" might not tell you but your gear is see through. I really don't need to see your crack for the next 50 miles. Thank you and please govern yourself accordingly.

Perhaps he wanted you to see his crack.

And the damper they get, the more transparent they get. Not a pretty sight! Yet, on every organized ride I do, there's at least one person wearing white shorts.

Yes, much better to ride like this trio so there's no question about what's seen:

If you weren't already staring at their butt this probably wouldn't seem like a big deal.

I've seen this situation with gray kits as well. My friend and his girlfriend had matching kits and they were see through. Needless to say, I'm a pig and drafted her for most of the ride. I told them both why I was and they laughed and didn't mind......It was a very pleasant ride for me.
