shaving my legs

he mighta been having us on tho. nobodys that dumb i hope

The ingrown hairs alone would probably be a BITCH.

lesson learned: shave with the grain to prevent ingrowns

i will never do this

'snever made a difference which way for me, against is easier to do. its the first time of the season that sucks so bad. you gotta have clippers. ive done the first cut with just a bic tho.

i always assumed women did against all the time?

Yep.

Think I'm going to start shaving my legs again, for teh summer. i has a ladys shaver somewhere.

I feel like such a noob when riding in a bunch with hair.

i like dropping leg shavers because i remember how aghast i was if some hairy legged bastard dropped me. the number of people i can do this to is ever dwindling as my waistline is ever increasing.

yes im not very mature

numba wasn't ever that high either

ITT Hunt3r is killing me.

i mean i have not raced competitively in many, many years but what he described in such a short space conjoured up so much memory, emotion, and yes, instinct as well... it's all pretty hilarious.

quit yappin and start training you old farts

why cyclists should shave their legs:

lol

spring unveiling is here

it's good to be back

FLASH and FLAIR for them sticks, oil em up cutty---POSEDOWN!!!1

new muscle mass in the quads i've got this year is very absurd

Spring? I reckon there's at least another month to go before the grand unveiling.

It arrived here yesterday, lovely.

judgement time = tonight

i will unveil my freshly shorn quads and calves for all the 100s of people on raceday to witness

also related question w/r/t emBROcation:
mid 50s (F) and rain = embroce?

yes. or knee warmers.

my knee warmers feel all sloggy in the rain so i think i will embroce (? imbroke?)

i have a date with my bathtub on thursday night... cue dogguntub/demimuff.

NO DON'T DO IT

tbh i am just gonna spiral ham the fok outta everything in reach.

i will never do this

i will probably rethink this if/when i ever race huh

TRADITION. Also dudes will paint a target on your back just because you don't. You're best defense is camouflage imho. Slip away only to be forgotten about.

you still havent shaved your legs dude... smdh

Upside: looks good when cycling
Downside: looks weird to the wider public (which includes friends and family)

honestly it was this thread that made me MORE weirded out about bike shaving (iirc) just because apparently it ends where the bibs begin? am i remembering that correctly (too lazy to scroll)?

having man-hair negative-image biker shorts would a) be kinda hilarious and b) sorta creepy?

i shave the entire leg. however i use a buzzer for the area where the bibs start.

gf says no

oh please

smdl

tell her she can't wear pants

lol @ smdl

homeless dude w/shopping cart just called me 'hairy legs' and laughed a whole bunch. assuming he's former racer

Tops of feet, y/n? Having smooth legs makes the feet look hobbit-like. I have few enough hairs I could probably pluck em, but...no.

smdl

i smdl tonite for 1st time in 4 months. surprisingly not as bad as i remembered. cheap generic hair conditioner is my secret for no nicks.

also smdbeard. beardo no bueno.

b-b-but it's winter. never remove hair in winter is my motto

was really really close to smdb yesterday, but didnt.

not smdl unless races happen, thinking i might do some mtb races.

Tracer it's been like 60-70F for almost a month, last weekend it rained but other than that: spring/fall esque.

>:0

totally unfair to have such weather
