I was wearing shorts.....and I was on a bike.
I haven't found a pair of biking shorts "big" enough for my lard ass.

There's got to be some out there, I've seen some big dudes riding centuries. Anyway, the shorts hold the twig and berries in place tightly whilst the spandex is able to glide to and fro over the seat without much friction. Without the shorts you've got friction from the seat and from the shorts and by the end of the ride it feels like your seat was a cheese grater. But, I guess you already know that now.

Nice work Tick. 4:18 is a very good time for a boy scout 50 miler. We took at least 5 hours when we did ours a few years ago. And most of it was downhill.
