Nah, cant be bothered. Some claim to shave so that if they crash it will heal easier, i don't plan on crashing on a regular basis so that does not apply to me. Does it make you go faster ?? well perhaps by 1 billionth of a second maybe. Looks more pleasing, i'm not in the habit of looking at guys legs so that's also out, nor making my legs look attractive so others can stare at them. Leg massage, i don't enjoy leg massages so there i'll save some poor soul the agony of having to do it. :D

My wife says I am NOT to shave my legs. She says only elite cyclists do it, and I am not in that group.

 

I could be if I wanted to (B PPA seeding) but I am gonna give that a try next Spring. This coming summer league is going to be killer with all the climbing races :blink:

 

I only shave (Veet) mt legs every now and then, but at the request of my wife, I will start doing it more often. She likes looking at my defined calf muscles :lol:

Why do Greek men wear those big gold chains around their necks? So they know where to stop shaving...

 

Being a bit of a big hairy ape myself, the only thing that would look more silly than my cycling tan lines, would be my shaving lines...

 

So NO, I don't shave, and I don't plan on starting either. Shaving my face every day is enough effort as it is.
