To be honest, it's a complete mystery to me - and the picture just makes me feel a bit sick. All that hair and shaving cream. Hair.. Shaving cream..

[b]-[/b] Does shaving my arms save [i]actually[/i] me 0.3 of a second?

[b]-[/b] Do the 'serious about bikes' people at CRC shave their arms because of their untold level of seriousness?

[b]-[/b] Is it implicit that only people who are shave their arm hair are 'serious about bikes'?

[b]-[/b] And who was the poor gimp they brought in to pose for the photo and how did he feel about wandering around with a silly shaved patch on his forearm?

The mind wanders at 5:30pm on a Wednesday..

I'd assumed that it was so that they could code the website faster and key in new stock into the database at unprecedented speed.

On this basis I've asked my development team to shave their arms.

roadie/race type wierdies shave thier legs and arms to go faster, even though theres no evidence it works.

I wish they could manage to ship my order in 0.3 seconds, or even 0.3 weeks.

Nearly a week now and not a peep. What's going on over there?
