Yes. It's disturbing to hear a bloke on the radio spend ten minutes expounding the merits of shaved
legs while eating your breakfast...

Hi all, In spite of little faults, it was good to hear a pro-cyling programme. I wish I could get a

I prefer the theory espoused in "The escape artist" that racing cyclists shave their legs because
that's what racing cyclists do to show that they are racing cyclists.

One of my triathlon mates 'fessed up eventually that he shaved his legs "because it feels nice
