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.
― W4LTER, Wednesday, 28 November 2007 22:04 (sixteen years ago) link
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

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.

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.

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.

Upside: looks good when cyclingDownside: 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?
― be told and get high on coconut (gbx), Tuesday, 13 July 2010 23:25 (thirteen years ago) link
i shave the entire leg. however i use a buzzer for the area where the bibs start.

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.

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