On my ride today, I decided I wanted a chainring/fred/noob tatoo, for real.....

This strikes me as a bad idea, but still something I'd like. Convince me otherwise, puhleeze!!!

Campy symbol on your ankle would be better...

I have quite a few tatoos, so no help here. I say go for it. Perhaps a bike chain around the upper arm.

I forget who...
But there is a sig " Chainrings are better than engagment rings", or something like that...

When it comes to tats, always go with the 'bad idea' instinct. If it doesn't kick in, go for it. In your case, it's a bad idea.

Perhaps consider the full chainring: http://www.blackbirdsf.org/chainwheels/

I once thought of getting a partial big ring tattoo on my inner calf where they usually occur. But I threw out that idea when I saw a messenger in downtown LA with one.

Draw a picture of what you want and put it on your refrigerator door. If after 3 months you still like looking at it, get it.

+1 but id almost say wait six months to a year. tattoos shouldnt be thought of lightly...as the guy who put almost all of mine on me said, "these are guaranteed to last threedays longer than you do...".
