Will this make me go faster?

yes indeed... did you manage to just keep to the set of symbols or did you decide another one wont hurt?

Always a pleasure to hear of another tattooed cyclist! I was really dismayed when I saw the results of a Cycling weekly quiz, where all the responses given came across as really bigoted and biased against tattoos. Everyone has the right to their opinion - but I have to admit, when the opinion is ugly and narrowminded, I'd rather not hear it.

Congratulations on a striking new tattoo. Xed's a talented guy

Once the finances are looking a bit better I'm in there! I've managed to resist for ten years now(!) but have found a few designs I'm keen on and should be able to swing it financially as well!

you've got an opinion, I can certainly say it wasn't cheap in any sense of the word, unless you compare it to say... a car. I think there was 7 hours work to do that... £80ph..

But if I really took to heart what everyone thought i'd have never got any done, my tattoos are for me if you see what I mean

I'm going to have the summer off getting inked and then maybe do the other shin or the back of the calf or my other thigh.. or my chest

oh dear

Holy shit - I had no idea how much tats cost. Mine was small and did not cost more than few quid. I apologise for my uncalled for comment.

cheers fella, sadly that's the world we live in, even though tattoos are becoming more media friendly so to speak and not routed in the percieved thuggery of yesteryear people will always judge you.

Gavintc, no problems, the ink was very fresh then so it can come over a bit shiny, just like it's a little scaby now

Hi Clever.
Does Nicole still work out of the shop in Brighton?
I like the look of some of her designs and I am looking to have a coloured celtic back piece but the guy who did all mine does not want to do a cloured one. Her coloured intricate work looks good.
