Southern California - So what's with the forum tatoo?

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.

I think I saw them in some posted pics of a ride. How did the riders get them? Does MarkAJ have something to do with it? I've only gotten bits and pieces here and there, so just wondering where zactly they came from.:o
Any close up pics of the tat?

IIRC ME had a Great shot of her "tatoo", stamped in the right place!

Shave a space on your left calf for the tattoo, for maximum stickage. If you like the design enough, go to a tattoo shop and get it filled in.
If you're a bikeforums addict, you'll want it close to your heart.

Close to my "heart" :rolleyes: Dude, I was hoping for a nipple, but Mark put it a little higher up. I am all about BF loyalty. :p

Well, since it's been a few weeks already, just call my people and set up an appointment and I'd be more than happy to set aside some time to do a "touch-up" :p

Weeelllllllll....I can handle it some other time as well!:rolleyes:
Once again these temp tattoos will be available at this Saturday’s B2B ride. Shaving is recommended. I will assist will installations so long as I am comfortable with where and who is making the request. Don’t be left out, come early and get your tat. I recommend displaying on your left calf.
With your tat on your left calf other riders will know who to jump on. Other side effects are: it could last up to three days and your mother might see it, it makes a statement- I BF, it is fun and showing off.
Temporary Tattoos Directions:
1.Skin should be clean, shaved and free of oils & makeup. (It works over suntan lotion. I do this all the time.)
2.Remove clear, protective top sheet.
3.Press tattoo firmly onto clean, dry skin with design facing down.
4.Hold wet tongue or cloth against back of tattoo, press down and make sure to wet it thoroughly.
5.Wait 30 seconds (don’t hurry). Peel off paper backing.
6.Gently rinse image with water for best effect. (I always forget this part.)
7.If you used your tongue don’t swallow the paper backing.
To Remove: Saturate tattoo with household rubbing alcohol or find significant-other to apply baby oil: wait 10 seconds, then rub each other and tattoo with cotton ball or bare hands. OR lift tattoo from dry skin using several pieces of transparent household tape. Discard cotton balls and or tape and continue with abandonment.
Final note: Good luck comes to those who apply the Red Star, but I have never had anyone confirm this.

Mark, I could so have fun with your directions. But I don't want BF to go down again, so I won't :p

No way am I shaving my legs, so I guess I'll just have Herb put one on my nipple. I've only got two hairs there!:D

You don't need to shave anything. I got one on my (hairy) leg at the Slackers Century and it stayed there intact for weeks until I removed it.
On second thought, you really should shave your nipple.

Define 'hairly'. That way I'll know if my nipple is hairly or not!:D
