Jon had his legs waxed for Thomas’s Fund! Here’s what he wrote on his JustGiving page: “In the past couple of years I have really enjoyed cycling competitively in time trials, and this year have even been coached. There is just one thing holding me back … leg hair. My clubmates say that smooth legs would save between 10 to 15 seconds, so the hair has, finally, got to go, and I might as well raise a few pennies at the same time.” Jon is a good friend and Welland Valley Cycling Club mate of Tim Smith’s, and the only way his wife would let him shave his legs – for aerodynamic reasons! – was if it was sponsored for charity. Check out Jon’s page on YouTube. Ouch.
