Barry gets a tattoo





The first motorcycle I sat on in my adult life, the one that sparked my obsession with sickles, is the very bike I purchased last fall. I got to buy the bike that started it all!

In the years between sitting on and purchasing this dream bike of mine I have owned several Yamaha's, Kawasaki's and Honda's, but never anything as old or nice as the 1968 BMW R69S I now own.

With a cool history that makes this into one of those "it was meant to be!" stories, it seemed fitting to let TJ Schneider give me my first tattoo, which is based on a painting he did of my bike a few weeks before.

Love my bike and love this tattoo.
