I get it more on my left leg where my pants aren't rolled. but yeah! weird!
@adams tight pants comment, I wore some looser jeans yesterday and I have to say, I will gladly take the hipster ridicule if it keeps my pants out of my chain. Even rolled up, baggier pants get in the way.

tight? carhartts are not tight. i still have the bald.

thanks for adding the 'shaved' option, lala. who knew some of us were so...hygenic? aerodynamic?

it's early march and i'm already in shorts. so no bald patches here. yay texas.

My calves have been bald longer than mattface's.

I don't get what part of pedaling destroys your hair on the calves. the upstroke?
i understand that it happens but it seems silly considering all the other activity I go through. And I dont even wear tight pants.

i've got the outside of the calves which i've had as long as my legs have been hairy, also there's the stubble where the roll sits, further more there's a patch on the bottom of my chin where i had an accident involving a broomstick(fake ninja bo) and walking on cracked sidewalk

i was very young at the time of the scrapping lots of skin off my neck incident

Weird.

My GF swore that I shaved that part ... I will now show her this thread.

yes knees and top of thighs- goes great w/some exczema and winter- it happens.

Wee ninja!

I just shaved legs last night, now i don't know :(

You have to shave all the way up the back, go above the plumbers crack, cycling shorts will stay on better when it starts to grow back. get your girlfriend to help you in the crack
