I've always wanted a chainring on my shin. But I've seen so many people with this now, it wouldn't be individual.

Quite a few of the MTB'ers I know are well into tattoos.

Tatoos should be restricted to womens' private parts so I can see their nudie photos on the internet.

afraid of tatoo, always wanted to have one, but so scared that it will hurt that i never had the courage to go and have one, I'd love a tiny one at the bottom of my back or on my right shoulder!

I have a few. The most painfull was a snake on my big toe that I had done at a tattoo expo sometine in the 90s.

My best friend and I had the same design done simultaneously sat next to each other - awww :oops:

I've got a gecko thing on my right shoulder. In fact it needs re-colouring, it's been there since 1992-ish....

After being dumped onto the tarmac on Saturday I have the imprint of an SPD cleat on my shin if that counts?

Just had a cover up tribal piece this morning/afternoon. It hurt.

Those people who say tattoos dont hurt are talking out of their arse!!
