TV and radio presenter Paddy McGuinness completed a 300-mile bike ride on a children’s bike last week to raise funds for BBC’s Children in Need and now he’s asking for help from his fans.
The fundraising total has reached £9 million (£9,254,482 as of this morning – November 18) and McGuinness has taken to his Instagram page to ask for guidance from fans regarding a new tattoo.
If the fundraising total reaches £10 million, he said he would get a tattoo of the Raleigh chopper bike that he completed the challenge on.
However, he’s unsure of where on his body he’d like to get the tattoo and he has turned to his Instagram followers to ask for help.
Paddy McGuinness asks for help from fans regarding new tattoo
Where do you think Paddy should get a tattoo of the bike? Let us know in our poll below.
Sharing a video to his official Instagram account, Paddy asked fans to avoid suggesting he gets the tattoo on his bottom, writing in the caption: “Where do you reckon? Don’t say bum!!!”
He said a popular response so far had been to get the tattoo on his forearm but was asking for recommendations.
One fan said: “Left side of your chest to remind you that you put all your heart into that challenge”.

Another commented: “On your thigh, as they probably powered you through your amazing achievement”.
Someone else suggested he should get it on his leg too: “How about somewhere on your leg? They did all the peddling didn't they? You'll easily reach 10 million now lol”.
Paddy added that he was looking for a tattoo artist to do the work since he thinks it’s likely the amount raised will reach £10 million.
