Too late tonight to link the relevant studies. But a vertical cylinder is far worse aerodynamically then a horizontal cylinder regardless of the surface...

I haven't taken as much interest in material aerodynamics so can't quote immediately, so I will need to look back over the various studies I linked recently again about the interaction of materials on the forearms. I am sure if it was proven to be faster, cyclists would already be shaving down like swimmers do before big meets.
