Like they say… You ever notice that you never see a motorcycle parked out front of a therapist or psychologist office?

Don't have to but some times I do. I get a hair cut and have my beard trimmed, once in a while. Some times monthly, some times every six months or so.

I'm more or less clean cut. For now. When I retire in a few years, I plan to get out of the shaving business forever.

We may all look different on our bikes, but we all smell the same after a long ride.

I trim my hair down with beard trimmers every few days, and I rarely have more than a little stubble on my face. No, I certainly don't have a "Grizzly Adams" look.

LOL. My wife just loves me when I come home from a ride with that sweat and exhaust fumes smell.
