No because the ink deep in the 'dermal' layer of skin, not in the epidermal (the outer) layer which is what comes off when you crash. You'd need to have a pretty insane road rash to hurt a tattoo.
The ink may be deep in the layers, but if your outer layer of skin is all scarred then the tattoo can be affected *personal experience*.
In anycase, its no reason
not to get ink.
Jordy - really like your sleeve mate, the biomech does manage to blend pretty well seemlessly into the angel.
Ill echo the sentiment about "meanings" and all that garbage. Dali drew/painted some absolutely amazing pieces, do I know the meaning is? No. do I care? No. Is it still some damn freaking amazing art? Yes!
