Barry Sandland/TIMB – Red beard in tow and a commitment to the harder demands of the community
YOU CAN HELP GET RID OF THIS BEARD!
“We get a lot of people who just come in to see us. They just come in to chat. One fellow, he had been a customer for years and years and he had been crushed by a lorry. It just hit him. He was waiting to go and they just drove over him. Part of his recuperation was, he would come and see us. And we would work on his bike and we built him a new one from the parts he had in his garden that he brought down for us. Three years later, he is back on the road. He is 60 now.”

You might be impressed by the shaggy barb being fashioned in the image. Apparently he has put it on the block, threatening to shave it off if a £60,000 target is met. A dire sacrifice, indeed. If you are interested in losing the pre-hipster growth, make a donation… Hopefully they will post a video of the facial scalping.
Help a pre-hipster lose his growth by donating to Brixton Cycles crowdfunding campaign.
