Subject: [CR]Origin of leg shaving

When did all this business start of shaving one's legs to make it easier to treat road rash? I recognize the benefits of doing the procedure, but I seem to remember seeing photos of some old timers who apparently shunned the practice. I am one of those who doesn't shave and I need a little history on the matter to put things into perspective with the guys from the friday morning ride.
