I am thinking of getting a tri tattoo. When I do my first Ironman and finish I will get an M dot. But I was thinking of getting the swim bike run symbols on my ribs.
Like this stores logo but in black oblique to armpit.
Not exactly a tri tattoo, but I’m glad I got it. Most people do not even think it is a tattoo - just some grease (sorry about the stubble - but my season is over…)
I have “140.6” with swim/bike/run characters on my right rib cage.
Just as a word of caution - do you have any idea how frick’n painful rib tattoos are? Seriously, I have about 6 tattoos and most were annoyingly unpleasant with some hitting some sensitive spots. However, that rib tattoo was 75 of the most painful minutes of my life. It was absolutely brutal.
I have similar swim/bike/run figures in black plus a green pine tree (for cda) cross an m-dot. Get something you like and is meaningful to you. I was anti-mdot tattoo until doing my first almost exactly 20 yrs after being diagnosed with cancer. It took on more meaning when I realized the dates.
Ha, I only do funny and cool tattoos. You should see the LaCoste crocodile on my chest (now if I posted that pic as a response, that would be kinda ga).
Luckily, my tattoo guy is also a bike guy, so he knew exactly what I wanted with the chain ring (and had the same idea for the tat about a week earlier).
