Movember Wrap-Up
December 6, 2010 98 Comments
As we move rapidly into December, we want to stop and take a quick moment to say one last goodbye to Movember! If you didn’t realize why so many men were sporting mustaches last month (and you didn’t check out our earlier post), Movember is a worldwide movement to raise awareness and funds for men’s health issues during the month of November, with a focus on prostate cancer awareness and research. Here’s part of our team of “Mo Bros”, clean-shaven at the start of the month:
And here they are in all of their follicular glory, at the end of Movember!
Will’s mustache was acclaimed to be the “most impressive” by our panel of entirely subjective judges:
But they all sported their ‘stache with pride, and showed off some impressive grooming skill (especially Jason’s General Burnside look on the left below):
We hope you had a successful Movember of your own, or at least supported someone who did! Performance Bicycle made a donation to the fight against prostate cancer in support of our crew of Mo Bros. In the end, that’s what Movember is all about–raising money for and awareness of men’s health issues that all-too-often are not talked about… although we have to admit that is was also worth it just for these pictures of our coworkers!

I love the idea and I hope it got people around talking. Perhaps I can create a felt mustache to join in next year!

Hard to “race” at work…
The people on reddit got pretty into Movember, you should see some of the pics there of facial hair. I could never do it myself, but hey more power to you! #7804

Had my ‘stache for about 30 years. Color it black or cut it off would get folks talking.
Haven’t shaved since 1987, so I guess I’m doing my part to promote men’s health awareness!

Wow, i really feel like I am in the top echelon at this point. Probably won’t have the yellow jersey in the end, but i am having fun.

Nice ‘stache but are you riding moustache handlebars?
Ryan #1578
Erik 8049. Good choice in picking Movember for the alleycat. Makes me feel good to give the comment love to a charity. And, being a man I can appreciate men’s helath issues. Off to the next checkpoint!
I love me a good ‘stache! And y’all have a good set of them there. Well done!

When you measure on a per-hour basis of exposure, bicycling is actually safer
than being an auto passenger, even considering all the unsafe bicycling
behavior.

Thanks for the checkpoint, and thanks for working for men’s health issues.
Bikes and Mo’s, yo!

I’d love to know how many are keepers.

Ahhh Performance.
Almost feel like I should change my race number to 901722507 (my old Performance #).
Cheers,

You actually have your Performance number memorized?
There’s nothing wrong with that

Thanks again for hosting the checkpoint. And for your efforts against male cancers.
You guys need to start a rock band with those darling facial hairdos!

Some are born to the ‘stache. Some have the ‘stache thrust upon them.
