Tattoos in Modern Cycling: Part One


Eric Roman. One of the key men in promoting Single Speed World's this year and a man not afraid to suffer in endurance events (not to mention at the hands of the needle).

When Indy Fab names a color after you, you better be able to back it, particularly if it's, as Johnny said, "really fucking pink." Iron Cross. Wilderness 101. Strong results and all done SS style.

Speaking of Johnny, he had mentioned seeing an article Eric Roman wrote for Dirt Rag outlining a bike setup he ran for Iron Cross that sounded ideal for TransIowa. If anyone happens to hold on to those, I would love to find that issue.

I wonder if ink like that makes you more nervous about crashing, kinda like remembering you don't have health insurance while your hitting an 8-step drop?

I used to think about the health insurance when snowboarding.

Angel on my shoulder: "You're not covered for this."

Devil on my other: "Stick it and you won't have to worry."
