]
] The research suggests frequent jolts and vibration caused
] by biking over rough terrain may cause abnormalities,
] including small scars within the scrotum and impaired
] sperm production.
]
] The abnormalities were found in professional mountain
] bikers and other "extreme" bikers who logged at least
] 3,000 miles yearly - or an average of more than two hours
] a day, six days a week. "
