I remember reading a report of a study done years ago that quoted a doctor saying in no uncertain terms that men should not ride bikes, period. No man should ever throw a leg over a bike.
Now we hear otherwise.
I submit that we don't need studies like these to state the obvious. If riding caused ED, men would have figured it out and abandoned their bikes long ago.
