A whole page on the subject of chainring tattoos.

Really cool idea. I just ordered a SOMA jersey with a design based on these.

Sadly, no tats for me. Not permitted as per religious tradition. However I do have to say that these tats are pretty sweet.

I don't know about you, but my tattoo is old enough to post stupid threads on this forum.

This is my favorite cycling tattoo. I've seen it on a few people and I just like it.
