Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

My legs feel more sensitive to air flow when wearing fishnets than when bare. The pattern they make on my leg is similar to that of the dimples on a golf ball, which induce a turbulent boundary layer on the surface of the ball to reduce drag.

If fishnets are causing the same effect, there would be changes in heat transfer but I'm not sure I'm up to digging into the differential equations.

In short, I'm thinking about wearing fishnets while cycling for aero.
