There is no 'direct link' between testicular cancer' and cycling. There is a 'direct link' between 'fertility problems' ans 'sterility in men' who cycle, because they usually either 'press their testicles up tightly' because of the 'seat' or they wear pants that are 'way too tight' to cut down on 'wind resistance' ... so I think if you get a good 'solid jock strap' that you can wear to 'protect those jewels' you might be a bit 'safer' ... but if you are just a 'casual cycler' and only do it on the weekends for fun, I don't think you need to worry all that much ... and the 'health benefits' of riding regularly are very very GOOD for you, too.

Grant, doesn't sound like the name of an old wife! So why are you listening to so many old wives tales?

Cycling does not produce infertility, in fact keeping fit and healthy might increase it! Neither does it increase the cancer risk!

cancer is a desease of the cells in a part of the body and im pretty sure you cant get it from ryding a bike. but i may be wrong. and it probably does cause infertility.
