I always thought the main reason was to make it easier for masseurs etc, and to make gravel rash easier to treat.
I think a lot of it is also to show off the muscle mass that they carry.
I tried it once... (confession time coming up)
I was convinced that underneath that matt of hair lied the toned, ripped and shapely legs of a formidable athlete.
The clippers, then razor were duly applied and after removing what looked like the contents of a barbours floor, I rushed to the mirror to study my magnificent new physique.
Sadly though, I was wrong.
Although muscular, I hadn't accounted for the layer of fat that the pro racers don't have, which was obscuring my imagined definition.
The end result was more like George Doors in lycra, and I had to suffer the following few weeks wearing longs until the hair regrew...
