Epilation can give you spider veins (according to my spouse), so between that and the chemical cosh that is depilatory cream, I'd recommend shaving as the lesser evil.

Talk to your wife first!!

Having not shaved since before I met my wife, getting back into riding last year, and feeling like a cyclist again, I shaved Sunday.

Of course, she has not stopped complaining or teasing since.

I shave during the summer - it simply looks better...

Shaving is too much of a tradition not to do it.

Wax for me
Man up

Prolonged effect as well

I feel you!

That might be taking it a bit far.

Things have clearly escalated quickly. The consensus seems to shave and endure the jokes from friends and family.

Wax, and she won't complain. In fact, she'll encourage it. The hairs will come out soft, not at all like hard stubble. That makes other things a lot better. Sleeping included.

Alex is right...

I think there is nothing better than jumping into clean sheet with freshly shaven legs -



on both me and the girl


but seriously... before shaving, all the bib grippers used to pull hair out and it was uncomfortable as hell - and hey, the jokes only lasted a week or so...

Does the nurse need to break out the clippers before placing an EKG pad on you?

Some of us don't have hairy legs and if there is hair there its really fine so it really doesn't show up much.

What about for when you get a massage?

I wish someone would do that for me after every ride.

Shave. If you are starting out, go over them first with a pair of hair clippers on a blade zero (dog clippers work fine also). Once clippered, depending on desired smoothness, go over with a razor. Maintain with a razor. If you have no shaving cream and the situation is desperate, use her hair conditioner. If you're going above the thigh line with the clippers, be very careful of your sack.
