I drove past a young lady yesterday cycling in a pair of Pearson shorts. I know they were Pearson shorts, because they had a Pearson logo across her arse, but it (the logo, not her arse) was backwards.

Why do they do this? I could understand having a backwards logo on the front of a shirt that might be seen in a rear view mirror or something, but why on the back???? confused

Here's an example of the same thing on a shirt...

What did the front of her look like?

Perhaps she was transparent.

Yeah, talking about not buying it because I think it's a stupid idea....until proven otherwise. ;-)
