The old conundrum: to shave or not to shave? Will it help knock a couple of seconds off your commute? Probably not. When Professor Tony Purnell spent many hours of time and pounds of money to research the effect in wind tunnels he found the ultimate aerodynamic leg shave was a bald front and hairy back. Not a good look.
What we do know is that, now we’re into warmer weather, gorilla legs don’t look too good coupled with lycra shorts.
When LMNH advertised a leg shaving workshop for Thursday 20th April from 7 - 10pm they were overwhelmed by enquiries, including one from Mr Ride Velo. Sadly this turned out to be an April Fool's joke.
