Winter Beard

The hairy growth on my face is now 3 weeks old and will need a trim soon. The best natural aid there is for riding in the cold weather, although mine has got a lot of white in it now.
Anyone else grow a winter beard?

It makes him look so much older, but all for a good cause.

It's bloody brilliant for keeping the cold out, and I'm starting to like the look. 8) (where is the beardie smilie?) Some mornings I have FROST in it! But only my ears get the chill!
The only problem is trimming to keep it out of the food. Should I get a proper beard trimmer?
Btw, the gf loves it :shock:
Facial hair is all wrong.
What wrong with you. Suffer some wind chill but at least keep your dignity.

Actually, it's pretty nice, until it gets itchy, or starts going in the food... :twisted:
In the end, it took two years to get to Santiago (with a twelve month 'gap year' back at work). I came back with some great photos.
During the 14 months I had the beard, I LOVED it. Easy to maintain, warm and comfortable. I saved 5 minutes a day without the utter faff of shaving, that is 34 hours of my life, released back to me, for me to waste in whatever way I wished.
As soon as I got back from Santiago, there was a family vote, and, within half an hour, the beard was gone. I removed it in stages and begged them to let me spend a day with the gay Dutch policeman moustache, but I was over-ruled, even on that.
I still miss my beard, but I have come to accept that those dear to me hated it. Intensely.
