It has to be said, amongst road cyclists, hairy legs make you look like a complete amateur. And it just looks awful. Scruffy and untidy. Why make the effort to have good kit and a sexy bike, and then turn up looking like a chimp ? (I like chimps though...I'm not chimp-ist, just not on a bike)

And a deep muscle massage, as most top road cyclists have on a regular basis, feels horrible with hairy legs, both to the cyclist and the masseur. Its just practical......hairy legs aren't good !
