Lyric discussion by gimpyx2k 

It's just about the tour de france and how Freddy loves riding his bike. You guys are obsessed with finding gay connection in every queen song its insane. I mean, there was even a post in We Will Rock You saying it was a gay pride anthem. It wasn't even written by Freddy for god's sake, it was Brain May's song. Just because he was gay doesn't mean every song is about that.

@gimpyx2k Brian said that Freddie did not like riding a bicycle and he actually liked the things he said he didn't on the song. He said Freddie wrote it because the tour de France was passing the area they were recording and he was fascinated by watching them go by (and, sorry for the "gay" reference, watching their thick bottoms in tight bike shorts). Brian said he wrote "Fat Bottomed Girls" around the same time as a ribbing of Freddie's interest in the "fat bottomed" girls and boys riding by.
