Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Are you shaving against the grain?

Dude, shaving's lame. Sorry.

And don't give me that bit about road rash if you crash, 'cause you know why you're really doing. it. The problem is, it just knocks the rest of us even lower down in the eyes of the maniac pickup truck drivin', gun rack totin', NRA card carryin' folks.

Actually, I resemble that statement. No shaved legs for me, though.

I did it last week for the first time.........
After I finished I looked at them and said "that's so gay!!!"
My girlfriend looked at them and said "that's so gay!!!"
All the girls at my work (and I work with alot) said "that's so gay!!!"

I'm never doing it again.
And guess what********************? Chicks don't dig it!!!!

I had the same problem when I used to shave for swimming. No cartridge razor will give you a close enough shave that you won't have stubble within a day or two, so your best bet if you don't want to be pissing off your girlfriend with scratchy leg hair is to wax. At least then it takes a couple weeks to come back noticably.

Oh, and by the way, it grows back longer.

Edit: Oh, and waxing legs isn't too painful, besides, if women can handle bikini wax pain, what kind of man can justify flinching at leg waxing?
