Definitely! No dried mud pulling hairs out my legs when I'm in the shower after a ride.
Your shower is proper fcuked if mud is still dry when you're in it.

Whilst we're being pedantic, I'd like to see photos of this:
ground half way through my handlebars

Thanks Swiss! lol!
I think the bar pic's are on my camera at home, I do have grazed buttock pic's here if any of you are that way inclined!
By the way, I did mean half way through the diameter of the bars and not as in half way through to the stem!!
Not sure which is worse though, roadie crash or mtb crash? Most of my mtb ones have ended up on soft soil or undergrowth. Wouldn't like a face / tree interface though!

my leg hair pokes through my tights and pulls, this hurts. My 3/4's and bib shorts have silicon grippers which pull my leg hairs, this hurts. I apply lots of sun cream to my legs and no hair makes this easier. I have lots of moles and a history of skin cancer so shaved legs makes checking them easier.
Also, as a 93kg 30 year old on a cx bike, I find the aero benefit a great help.
Get em shaved boys!

Not sure if it's worse sliding along for ages on smooth tarmac, or for a shorter time on that really rough stuff - really slows you down that does!
If your legs weren't so smooth, you wouldn't have slid so far.

yes but the coefficient of friction would have been greater; thus bringing the tarmac to melting point.

Sometimes my legs look like a sheeps bum when the mud dries on.
So shaving would be good for that. Prefer to have a layer to protect from stingers and I can't be arsed.Posted 1 year ago # -
Serious question, whats the point, I mean except from looking like a transvestite.
Serious answer, trichophobia. Interesting explaining that one away at the gym.
