Beards and Bikes
 
No, not a "hipster" thread. Maybe some of you have heard of Movember ( Movember United States - Home).

Anyway, it got me thinking, how many of you rock facial hair with your vintage bikes? Post a pic! Either with a bike, or without. Let's see who has the most impressive beard.

I'll start with my Movember submission from two years ago because I have it here handy.

anyway, this is just for fun. Bonus points if you post with your vintage bike.

I have a feeling whathisname from Florida is going to win this...

When rocking a TT ride on that Cannondale Crit Series I got quite the looks from 3 young ladies in their 20's as I zipped by at 25+mph. I assume it was a surprise to see an older biker with a white 'tee in the drops of a racing bike. I knew I was laughing with them.

A selfie with Paul at th end of our 60 mile gravel grind on mid '80s Schwinn High Sierras. Only about 36 hours on the chin whiskers. The 'stash stays. :D

At the beginning of the ride, just to prove we did it on bikes.

I'm casting an early vote for the Gnome as the winner of this one.

It's all I have.

Between the Marine Corps, and the fire dept. Ive never had the opportunity to grow a beard. 13 years to go till retirement, then I will dig up this thread and post a pic of my beard.

I normally keep my beard well trimmed but sometimes it needs to be aired out.
