hey C.B.C.L. Where on you are those tats? Its a bit hard to tell, esp the last one.

Ive been working on a BMX tat since last April (to mark 25 years of BMXing). Ive kinda worked it out but now Ive got to get round to getting it done. Ive been meaning to cut my hair for about 2 months so I dont hold much hope for the tat at the moment

top = on my back

middle = on the side of my left calf

bottom = at the top of my right arm.

alex you should get the s&m shield on your heart!

lets see your design.

I'll keep my tat design untill its done. No point till its happened.

S&M shield would be great, Ive thought about it many times. Never thought about on the hart / chest. From a distance, it would look like I had a Grange Hill jumper on when I was naked!

I have no tattoos. I've always thought that nothing in life should be that permanent - apart from death....

However, the tattoo that changed my mind on that was the target tat on Dave Clymers shin. I always thought that ruled. kinda summed up bmx for me.

One day maybe..

SaMAlex · « **Reply #9 on:** September 23, 2007, 11:00 PM »

Not the S&M whip lady on Clymers arm then Rob???

TwoBobRob · « **Reply #10 on:** September 23, 2007, 11:05 PM »

Hehehe..... actually never saw that one..... that target just really caught my eye. Dunno why exactly, just thought it was cool.

Anyhoo, girls are evil. I'm trying to stay away from em these days

harris · « **Reply #17 on:** September 24, 2007, 08:50 AM »

YGT · « **Reply #18 on:** September 24, 2007, 08:56 AM »

I had thought about giving myself that human hudini look by getting a bicycle chain that starts at my ankles and then goes all the way up and over my shoulders down and meets in my chest .... just gotta get the funds first
