[CorsairMac]

Just make sure it's BELOW your shorts line!

this one belongs to my best riding pal

I'm not into tattoos at all but that is a beautiful work of art.

I love ink! I haven't gotten any biking tats...yet! At an organized ride I was behind a guy (for a while, then I had to pass ) who had a panther on his calf, it was so cool! I decided then and there that when I get another one, that would be the place!

Top tat Bikerhen!
Occasionally I think about getting one myself but just can't make up my mind so guess I should hold off till I find something I totally love.

Irulan - amazing tatoo on your friends back. Think I recognise it from a piece of art from the 1920's- 30's used to advertise Celest Bikes. Beautifully done!

I was Just thinking about you......hadn't seen you post in awhile (or missed it while I was out of the country) and was hoping everything was going ok!

Good to see you again.

Hi CorsairMac - hope you're well.

Haven't been riding since June when I slipped/ruptured a disc in my back. Gradually got more and more dishearted with cycling since I've missed a whole summer. Back is on the mend now - even done a short ride on my mtb on the road and starting to look forward now.

Dipped out of TE for a while there but on my way back...

Sorry about the thread hijack .... back to Bikerhen's cool body art...

Hey Mickchick, Nothing like a tattoo to help thoses mid life urges. When I was growing up in the 60's ( ) I want to be a hippie so bad, but was just a little to young. I'm making up for it all these years later by investing in old VW vans and now tattoos Be sure and post a picture when you're all healed up. It's sounds cool!

Nanci, My tat cost about $100. I don't know if that's good or bad. But it seemed reasonable to me. Another thing to think about tattooing the top of your foot . . . beside the pain, someone told me a friend of theirs had one on her foot and wearing shoes had worn some of the ink off.

I'm glad I don't have to hide bikerhen when I'm at work. One of the benefits of working in a retail type job. I'm finding the older I get, the less I care about what others say or think. I'm working toward becoming ecentric, but since I'm not filthy rich, I guess I have to settle for crazy old biker lady, which works fine too! BikerHen

BikerHen---You got a great deal! My tat is much more simple and it cost $120. Of course, everything here in the DC metro area seems to cost more.
I, too, am a member of the "who cares what others think and say" camp. There's always someone who won't like you, for whatever reason. As long as I treat other people with respect and kindness, I figure that I'm doing OK.
By the way, it's never too late to be a Hippie!!!

ROFL - thought ya'll would appreciate this:

I got my first tattoo when I was about 36. The first thing my dad said when he saw it was: "Do you know that's permament?" *shaking head*

as for having a tattoo on the top of your foot? it is very painful as there isn't any body fat there to help absorb the shock of the vibration. As for the shoes wearing the ink off? Since the ink is actually inbedded in the skin - it's pretty hard to wear the ink off unless she's abrading her skin. She should be able to go back to the place that did it tho and get it touched back up.

and now I gotta stop reading this coz I've been wanting another one for awhile and ya'll are making me want it that much more!
