Some great comments by him in his autobiography about "needing a trim, what?"<BR/><BR/>Double AA Aaron Yates has won some AMA Superbike and Superstock races with some facial hair.....Pee Weehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04103286304787432511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25014445.post-68979083211796774272008-07-31T16:18:00.000-07:002008-07-31T16:18:00.000-07:00Haha or just keep it and be the first!
