    I have a theory that people only have a certain amout of hair that they are able to grow in a lifetime.

    Most of the people I knew as a kid who were hairy barstweards and looked about 25 when they were 15 were bald by the time they were actually 25. All used up, you see.

    Whereas, people who looked about 15 when they were 25 look largely the same (just a lot less refreshed) some years later.

    He who laughs last laughs pretty much with a full head of largely not greying hair.

    Who here has a beard?

    Do you get moisture build up in your beard whilst riding?
    No

    How do you get on with sweat in the beard/skin issues?
    its not a problem as mine is short


    Do all bearded riders use an old rusty, squeeky Audax bike from 1956 and cycling kit from 1973 (that was not fashionable in 1973)? Usually polyester based kit.

    No I got a Giant escape, but soon to get a single speed

    My border collie has a strenuous objection to hoodies, any colour skin darker than white, men over 6foot, teenage boys / women / anyone in fact waiting at bus stops, people who talk to themselves, stand still, or walk towards me when they don't have a dog.

    Beards are the least of my worries.

    Suffice it to say the chances of me being attacked when walking alone with him are remote......

    does your dog read the daily mail ?

    :lol::lol:

    Mine is half b/collie and half pointer, the above describes him perfectly although the pointer does take over and chill him out sometimes (not at 4 in the morning though :x ).

    It could be a science beard.

    Once didn't shave for a month. With a ski hat on, and dressed as a right scuffer, I felt like Badly Drawn Boy.
