Why do so many Pro Racing Cyclists now have Beards ?

You think riders might resort to germ warfare?

I thought it showed they were checked for Wrong Thinking in matters of Facial Hair Ideology.

I've already reported @fossyant by the way.
 
Women don’t like big uncle Albert beards but they love shorter well kept beards.

Suddenly, it all makes sense...

I've just done a brief, and highly unscientific survey, of the three 'most significant' men in my life.

One is clean shaven, the second has a neaty trimmed goatee, the third has a full and luxuriant beard.

It would appear that they are all 'quite popular with the laydees' one way or another.

I'd say of the trio, the one with the busiest beard cycles fastest.

However, on a good day, I with nary so much as a whisker, can out pedal all of em .



It also makes me wonder: what is this poster really saying?

"Without a beardy theory there cannot be a beardy movement."

??

Or,

"Never mind all that socialism nonsense.

Gurls just love a goatee"

You say that but about 15 or so years ago my beard trimmer gave up the ghost (the little pin that converts the rotary motion of the motor to reciprocal motion for the moving blade snapped off) and with a family 'event' to go to I needed to do something so after nearly injuring myself with scissors I bought some razors and shaved that morning and went out. Upon returning home Maz said 'What have you done" so I explained and her comment was "Don't ever do that again, you look like a potato" and bought me a new trimmer.

BTW my family thought I looked smart with my Mum in particular saying " you always looked ' scruffy'unshaven, nice to see you made an effort" :laugh:

Mums eh? :rolleyes:

imo some chaps faces are just better off 'leaving something to the imagination'

Plus, all that shaving every day business looks like a right old faff...

Mum never understood me, basically I was dressed like 'Little Lord Fauntleroy' as a child until in about 76 when I started working (summer holidays and weekends) and turned into a 5th Ramone
