Well, I can grow two long prickly billygoat hairs on either side of my chin.
This makes me not only much, much more hip, but far more masculine than the rest of you.

You grow a mustache because you want to, not because of what someone
else
(other than your significant other) might think. They don't like it,
they
don't have to look at it. Do your thing, man. I once grew a goatee and thought I was being funky. Instead, others thought I looked
"dignified".
Not the look I had in mind. I have grown many a beard in my life as well. Don't now, though, as when my daughter was five and I shaved it off, she
said,
"Daddy, now you look like a good man." Kept it off since. I don't want
to
look like a "bad" man in her eyes. Also, Tom Ritchey is an awesome guy. Heard him speak in Denver about how he came to be an integral part of Project Rwanda. This project is absolutely incredible and inspiring. If you can check it out by all means do so. And if you can find a way to support, go for it. This project truly has and is changing the lives of people
in
Rwanda!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is my first post to this doohickey. I've met veganboyjosh. My name is Patrick. I work at Bike Saviours in Tempe. Anyway, I have a moustache. Lately non-bike friends have accused me of growing it to be trendy. This is annoying, I've grown up around people with moustaches. Punks have moustaches, and bike people in particular seem
to
grow them. I grow facial hair every winter. It doesn't seem abnormal to me, and I don't see why its trendy. Anyways, you know who has a moustache, and has had one for years? Tom Ritchey. Tom Ritchey designed and hand built some of the first mountain bikes with Gary Fisher. He's designed scads of components, rides all
over
the world, and in hasn't shaved his stache in nigh of 20 years. He's a damn decent guy, and bike nerd to rival the best of them. I saw his
moustache
and the man today in Sedona at Mountain Bike Heaven. And it was fantastic. Anyways, you can use him as a point of reference for cycling
moustaches.
Oh yeah, he started this http://projectrwanda.org/ He's the first guy listed on the board of directors. Maybe that is on topic, project rwanda rules also.

I think a central component of the "magazine" section and resource library should be zines. They are almost always local, place-specific, and grassroots. There are some seriously awesome zines out there - about bike trailer construction, commuting, and tons more - the best local zine

in Minneapolis is Dames on Frames, a feminist analysis of the biking movement locally and globally. Microcosm publishing has a great collection available for purchase (and it's super easy to set up a wholesale account with them). The other suggested books are great. I've been thinking for a while
that
our shop should set up a resource library for folks to either check out or use in the shop. -Jason Tanzman Sibley Bike Depot, St. Paul MN _______________________________________________ Thethinktank mailing list Thethinktank@bikecollectives.org To unsubscribe, send a blank email to TheThinkTank-leave@bikecollectives.org To manage your subscription, plase visit:
