So when you crash, it's easier to clean out your road rash. Easier for the bandages to stick too. -

And for the bandages to come off when it's time afterwords.. -
lets see- you dont know why, BUT, you wanna shave? 🙄
sounds like "high value" poseur points to me.
as for rash, keep the rubber side down!

1. Simpler medicating and healing following crashes (yes, eventually you will crash and have to deal with road rash).
2. Massage goop goes on easier. :eek:
3. Looks cool and fast (the pros do it too!).
4. See point number 3 - you will have to train damn hard, to avoid people making fun of you and snickering as they ride by you on their hyrid with baggy shorts on...
5. You tan a lot quicker without the hair.
On a personal note, it helps to psyche me up and gets me riding more often. Silly, I know, but whatever makes me ride more makes me happier.

No reason if you don´t fall off a lot , but it does make applying sunscreen , massage oils ( pre and post ) etc much easier : why not ask your wife and/or girl friend for their opinion , " my wife likes it " shuts most loud mouths up dead .

And what about THIS reason:
You've worked bl00dy hard to get your legs into shape, spent a fortune not only on equipment and toys, but also on vitamins and supplements, as well as time on the road and in the gym, etc. and you have the right to show off the results of all that hard work as best as possible!
