Richard Armitage’s beard in Stella McCartney
Well, not quite. A few months ago I saw the proposal for the Team GB Olympic uniforms, designed by Ms. McCartney, and saw the bicycler’s uniform. Now that is a costume Mr. Armitage would look great it — biker gear really emphasizes the developed thighs and rear of the person wearing it, and there’s no penalty in the cut for an oddly placed waist or broad shoulders. Mmmmm. Fits just right, every time.
So, in honor of the Olympics starting today, I decided to put full-bearded Armitage on the Team GB cycling team.
Well, not quite. Those are Chris Hoy‘s frighteningly large thighs.
Also, professional bikers are very superstitious about cutting wind resistance and I imagine if Mr. Armitage were on Team GB, they’d make him shave his beard and his legs and maybe even his forearms.
Good luck to all the Olympic athletes and teams. To our London friends, we hope you’re surviving the crush!
And to friends of the beard, here’s a new Twitter account to follow: @RichardsBeard.

To fair and sportive games. I hope with you, Rosiepig, that the weather holds. Should send some of the bright weather we have here right now, as it would be ideal. I hope it works ;o)
P.S.: Servetus, perhaps it is just on my computer, but I don’t have the login icons e.g. for the WordPress identity for the comment box any longer, though they are still there somehow, as they work, when I hover over the area with my mouse.

Just wanted to give feedback regarding the buttons, as I tried again and now, after logging out and trying again, the buttons are back. Seems to have been a temporary problem.

Racing spandex definitely accentuates the male physique. Sighhhhh! I’m sure a ceRtAin gentleman would look quite handsome in it. And have I mentioned that my hubby is also a bicycler? Ha!

I’ll say it as it is! If Richard wore that, no man would dare to stand next to him. His beautiful Thunder Thighs would cast a shadow on everything around! Poeple would bounce off that bum!
BTW, Great Britain, you did a wonderful job yesterday! My Dad said it was the best opening he’d ever seen, and believe me, that’s the highest compliment you can get 🙂 I was really proud to be a fan of all things British yesterday, and I know many share that feeling.

Nice imagination – I am sitting in front of my comp with a big grin right now 🙂
But I don’t want him to shave his forearms because I love that fluffy hair of his *sigh*

No, I was imagining how he’d look in it. 🙂
My official position, of course, is that we should get him charity donations for his birthday. But I wonder if he opens the stuff fans send him and wonders if they want him to be their personal paper doll 🙂

The thought of the paper doll is better as the thought that we all are nutjobs 😉
I love it that he set his JustGiving pages up and give fans the opportunity to donate money in his name!
