www.cagiva.it (has english translation) says it is the Celtic symbol for Body, Mind and Soul, but I'm sure it has a name. 8) I rather think it would make a nice tattoo :D

The symbol is used in the intro to Channel 4 prog "Charmed". 3 fit birds giving demons a hard time....uh ...allegedly......according to my teenage daughter.............. :oops:

ps . The 3 points are supposed to be mind, body and soul.

TOP OF RIGHT ARM ABOVE TRIBAL ARMBAND TATTOO FOR ME.
Being a child of the sixties it was a must have, since i took early retirement last year ive also let my hair grow(if youve got it flaunt it!) it feels good to have my life back after so many years of short hair and wearing a bloody whistle every day.... Think ill go and listen to dark side of the moon and have a beer!

I was wondering what band to put under my celtic birds (top of Left arm)... I might feel a creative moment comming on... Raptor triskel as a center point on a nice band... hmmmm...


and I know what you mean about having your life back... they made me redundant last year after 22 years of working in London I now work in Sussex (7 miles of nice twisty roads) from home. :D

Anyone noticed that one of the smartest helmets on the market has got a symbol not unlike the triskel on both sides. Check out Shoei's Kagayama Rep. I feel an investment coming on! Bit dear though by my usual cheapskate standards, are Shoei's that good??? Cheapest I've seen was Ally Pally show and they wanted £250.

They been given top marks in MCN and a few other mags. One of the best helmets going i think. I'm saving up my pennies for one myself.

I know the shows have special offers but the cheapest you can buy it anywhere else i've found is BB Bikeshop, £299. RRP is £350. they have a website. www.bbbikeshop.co.uk i think.
