Скачать или смотреть Episode 19: Tattooing Before Social Media & Riding Coast to Coast with 50lbs of Tattoo Gear

Join us this month for an incredible conversation with Bob Lackner (@bicycle_bobs_tat2) as he takes us on a journey through the open roads, high-stakes guest spots, and the sheer grit of a coast-to-coast tattoo adventure!

In this episode, Bob shares the mind-blowing story of his 40th birthday ride—a 3,940-mile trek from San Francisco to New York with nothing but his camping gear on his back. 🤯 Bob breaks down the mental and physical toll of averaging 100+ miles a day and the homesickness that almost broke him before reaching the California desert.

We also dive into the "pre-social media" era of tattooing, where getting a guest spot meant being invited into the inner circle. Bob recounts his first trip to Maui in 2003, working with legends in Lahaina, and how those early experiences shaped his perspective on the global tattoo community.
