I saw Bob today in Merced. He had his hat on, I yelled to see his new do as he walked by. He took off his hat and mumbled he didn't have it yet. He looked kinda surprised someone knew about it.

I can't believe no one here noticed that Bobke did the deed today, courtesy of Johann
I was so busy at work that I missed it, but caught a glimpse at Fatty's liveblog just before I left.
Here's video of him talking about it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dM9IZb_HfQA
Edit: And here they are in the act: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2LsPDukOzw Lance's reaction is terrific

I saw he was "shaved" at the end of the race when he was interviewing Levi & Mark. It was not a good job. I did not see all of the Versus coverage of the race so not sure if they talked about it at all on Versus.

I saw it on versus...Lance's reaction was SO funny! You are right, he actually did a terrible job shaving it!

The YouTube links I posted are the Versus coverage about the challenge. The second one shows Johann actually shaving Bobke's head. At the end, Chris Hummer mentions that Johann left a big strip of hair on the back of Bob's head, so Bob was running around trying to find a barber.

Sadly I am work and they block YouTube here...so I cannot see it.
I'll check it out when I get home!
Yeah, it was not a very pretty shave job!
Some guys look so much better when their head is shaved...I am afraid he does not! Poor Bobke!katluvr

So...I just want to know if Johann did that on purpose to be a wiseguy, or if he was just rushed and missed a (big) spot...... Originally Posted by Kalidurga

My guess is he was laughing too hard to do it properly

you don't need to go to youtube, you can find it on versus as well.
http://www.versus.com/cyclysm then scroll through the video clips to find the one that says bob rolle shaves for charity, or something like that. lance's response is hysterical.
