There is no difference in speed with or without leg hair. (The reduced drag from "streamlining" is cancelled by the loss of the "sail" effect in tailwinds.) Tradition (fashion) also plays a major role. (Why are there so few hairy power lifters? Probably because of oils used to make them shiny... Whatever.... Kerry,
