Shave those legs?

TMN to winjim

I'll take that, but my post already has thirteen likes so I'm not bitter

And to be fair, I didn't explain that it was Boardman who said it, but only because I was waiting for someone to call BS on me . Although it was frame designer Mike Burrows who suggested the two offset strips thing.

Yes, and on the shoulders and a few other places, still arguably negligible difference though.

According to Chris Boardman, a thin strip of hair should be left on the front of the shin for optimal aero advantage (thereby creating turbulant flow and less of a wake behind the leg)...never seen anyone attempt this though...

I shave, look at my feet they are silky smooth.

I always suspected you were a hobbit

 

[Octet]

what is a TMN?... .. Besides you?

It's an in forum joke, if two people post the same or very similar content and the second one gets more likes it is called a TMN after User13710 who experienced this often.

I wasn't a member when it originated, but some of the older members should be able to give you more background on the matter.

I don't shave, but have used the beard trimmers on most places south of belly button

It felt vaguely kinky the first time I did it a year ago - now it's become rather addictive.

Oh no you don't, it has got nothing to do with shaving it was to do with an accident at work

I have done before , well I kept smooth after a knee op for a while. its a strange look when you're hairy above the waist too and whole body depilation would be far to onerous a task. Waxing would probably see me bleed to death

Great, think I'm becoming addicted to shaving my legs. Now becoming a weekly occurence.

 

[jack smith]

Shaved mine last week and will never do it again, i did it to stop my upper legs rubbing though but it looks rediculous id rather leave it than look like this

What this thread needs is photos before and after shaving, I'd go first, but my camera is not working so I'll have to leave it up to you.
