Im having a major rework on an old tattoo in a couple of weeks. Does anybody here have any interesting ink?

Or even better any cycling related ink?

    I want one, but it has to be something that's personal, and actually means something to me, that I won't regret when I'm older... I haven't come up with anything yet, so I'm un-inked.

    I've toyed with the idea of having the parasol shielded penny farthing logo from the 60's series The prisoner tattoo'd on my outer lower calf. Or possibly the matchstick figure from The Saint. But then again I think bloody 'ell ya forty seven grow up. :lol:

    This will probally sound silly but, thought about getting a tattoo of the pattern my large oily chainring makes on my calf muscle when I accidently touch it with my leg, but why make it permanent when it's on there just about allthe time anyway? *(well only during the summer). :oops: :roll: :shock:

    If you do a google search on "cycling tattoos" you will see that its one of the most common designs...........

    I have 7, 3 on each arm/shoulder, and one on my botty.

    When i was in the army, my corporal, a Para, had a black butterfly on the head of his penis. Looked fantastic, but he said it was excuitiatingly painful. He was drunk at the start, and stone cold sober at the end.
    Gives me the willies still just thinking about it.

    I'm in the process of working on something to cover the piece of crap I got when I was 16.

    Im type 1 diabetic, so i got diabetic tattooed on my lower arm. So now if i crash or kark it somewhere people will know :D

    The main reason i actually got it was because i do lots of water sports ie. waterpolo, swimming, surfing and i kept losing the braclet i was supposed to wear. Other than that i haven't got anything else although i have thought about it.
    Do you have any Therapeutic Use Exemptions?
    No. Never have.
    Never? What about the cortisone?
    Well, obviously there was the cortisone

    i had my blood group tatooed on my wrist when i joined the army, so if i got shot, they knew what blood to pump in. Then i found out, they stuff you full of O POS anyway while they wait for match on your blood. And i am O POS!!!
