We need pics! :D

Just kidding. I haven't shaved my legs for about 10 years now. Right after you do it, they feel great, but when the stubble starts back it itches like crazy. Plus, there's the "how high up should I go" question. My legs are so furry, that when I stopped just above the knees, it looked like I was wearing wool shorts. :rolleyes:

Eventually I went up to just below my azz in the back, and pretty much all the way up in the front.

Yes, too much information, but what did you expect? :p

Never done it nor do I want to.

My question is this for the hairy guys...

If you shave your legs, where do you stop? At your thigh?

You'd look like you were wearing overall-shorts made of hair.

More to the point, if I ever tried to shave my legs I'd have to start over again on the first leg by the time I had the second one done.

Did when I raced XX years ago. Once had a girlfriend in cosmetology training wax 'em. REALLY HURTS! Doesn't come recommended. Long lasting though.

Wife cringed when I threatened to shave 'em again last month.

yeah, I just got sick of plucking out stuff from my leg wounds. much cleaner.

yeah, I'm pretty much a roadie now though. oh well. I'll be riding a 6" travel bike tomorrow though...

i've thought about it but it would be too big of a job to do regularly. my legs are wicked hairly. plus, i can't even remember to shave my face on a regular basis, all that extra shaving would be too much to handle.
