I shaved the first time for the logical reason of easier road rash cleanup, but I keep shaving because. . .

1. I feel like a cyclist after shaving.
2. Lance, Tyler and Levi shave.
3. My 30 mile TT average speed improved by .000000367 mph after shaving.
4. It bothers my 15 year old son that his dad "shaves like a woman."
5. It really bothers my MTB friends that I shave.
6. I actually think I have a pretty good pair of legs and my male ego likes showing them off. But no one ever notices. What's up with that!!
7. At a race I don't stand out as the Cat 5 amateur that I am. . . until I actually have to race.
8. My bike deserves it.
9. My wife and I actually have something in common.
10. Scratches, chainring tattoos and other marks of distinction stand out much better.
