Shave away. That's one competition I'm happy not to have with the wifey."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark Twain -
One minor point; I crashed in the velodrome at about 50 kph, having not shaved my legs, the first time I rode there. I learnt my lesson. Some hairs got trapped in the little gaps between the boardings as I slid to a halt; yeeooowwww!!!And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment

Miss Pendleton was quite good at that. But then somehow she spontaneously burst out blubbing about the pressure and the journalists and all those nasty people saying nasty things, having shown herself to be really quite 'ard when it comes to physical pain.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument?
