What bike is that? The headbadge had me thinking Holdsworth but the writing on DT isn't that. Looks nice whatever it is.

Clone of my mountain bike, actual shots of two of my road bikes. (The Peugeot was originally built for Patricia, but now that she rides a mountain bike, I have converted it into my commuter.)

The guy on the box, his beard is too consistent in coloring..... obvious FAKE color. Reminds me of the Adventure Team GI Joe's with life like action facial hair and Kung Fu grip.

I usually keep my head shaved and although The Girl likes the stubble (to look at) she prefers me to stay clean shaven as those grey whiskers are like razor wire on her delicate skin.

Jefferson Ave? There is a Jefferson Ave in Watertown that I ride sometimes for a block or two on my commute. It's a residential road. Since I didn't ride it today it is unlikely you saw me.

For the win!
...My older brother seems to have inherited whatever east german gene it is that codes for epic beard. I have the other one, same as my dad for scraggle beard... no good. In three months my brother's beard protrudes a good 6 inches. in three month mine might be 3 cm.
