Additionally, but of probably more importance than the above, because: * Shaved skin is easier to clean and dress after suffering 'road rash' (abrasions caused by a crash or fall) * Shaved skin is both easier (for the masseur) and more comfortable (for the cyclist) to massage Lastly, shaved legs look good!
