Bib shorts and hairy legs?
Is it the male cyclists equivalent of a woman’s hairy arm pit?
Who here manages their leg hairs?

As nature intended for me. Waxing was fun but takes too long.

If you can take the leg pulling, mickey taking and name calling – give it a go…
Far easier to clean down after a ride and doesn’t take too much faffing!

Nope. Not because I’m against it in any way but it just seems like a huge amount of hassle. I can barely bring myself to shave my face.

cultivate

Explain.

Get some of that hair melting stuff, you know the stuff Girlies use on their front bottoms, that’ll do the trick quick and easy like, put on, shower off, stink all day…
Veet, thats it or such like (Yup I’ve just looked in my Bathroom, it’s there alright, alongside the toothpaste and hair gel)
😀

Can’t do the full shaved look, equally if left as nature intended I get the leg equivalent of claggy winnits. So I go for a once over with the beard trimmers on #1 or #2.

Cultivate = plaids, beads, extensions, high lights etc.

Ah, right.

Too much of a hassle for me try it again – looks and feels great when the legs are bald, but become a wire brush after 2-3 days which is a nightmare.

I once worked in a gym with an Antipodean mountain biker who only shaved up to the line of his bib-shorts, but the rest of him was like a gorilla. Once walked through the changing rooms showing a new client the facilities as he was stripped down to his boxers….. 😯

Only shave if you are skinny, have a tan and enough leg muscle definition to pull it off.

Otherwise you’ll just look like a guy whose other hobby is dressing up in women’s clothes.

Waxing every four weeks for me

Otherwise you’ll just look like a guy whose other hobby is dressing up in women’s clothes.

You say that like it’s a bad thing?

Well I’ve always gone for shaved, but not all women are prepared to go that far.

Oh… hang on…

skinny, have a tan and enough leg muscle definition to pull it off

Phew, I meet those criteria *strokes silky smooth toned legs*

Just started shaving a couple of weeks ago. Feels nice, looks better in lycra and easier to apply suncream. Not 100% convinced I’ll keep it up forever but it’s not much faff (much easier than shaving face).

I take it you lot who shave live “daaaahhhhhnnnn saaaaaarrrrffff” it’s sodding Baltic up here on the North East coast so I need all the insulation I can get… Shaving legs…. FFS next you lot will be trying to tell me that it’s over 60p a pint in London.

You’re dead to me now.
