Come on then - where do you stand on this contentious issue?

Do you know, if you asked me that a few months ago I'd have said, 'No, I'm a Scotsman and I'm MEANT to have hairy legs!!' However, since having two offs on the bike I can't help but think that it'd be easier to apply dressings etc without having to effectively wax an area every time I remove a plaster.

I'm like a gorilla so de-thatch now and then to let the vitamin D through. Current policy is to leave a thin layer on as I live near Blackpool and don't want to attract unwelcome attention as I cycle through. Also easier to dry off in the field and apply/wash off sun tan lotion etc. I don't like being mega hairy.

Just the trim attachment on my Philips shaver, Del. Held off slightly as the passes are made. Easy peasy. I once went the whole hog and used an epilator. Looking back I'd rather have my finger nails removed.

I do indulge in a little 'trouser topiary' whenever required, but have never shaved my legs thus far.

Never have, but thought about it. Bought an epilator yesterday on impulse half price for my daughter with the thought that if she doesn't use it I might...

I might do the shins and leave the calves to trail in the wind.
I have before, not sure if I will again, depends how the tan comes along this year!
