This is a fun thread. I did own a Harley Sprint (350 cc single lunger) made in Italy if I remember right (brake and shifter on opposite side), in my college days. No tatoos, no IT (but a retired engineer). I'm 63 and 5'3" and tough as nails (in my own mind). Have a great day everyone!
Correct me if I'm wrong...

I'm a management type and part time university professor, no tats...but I was born and raised on a bike and ride a Yamaha Roadliner.
I don't like Bikes. I don't work in IT. All the "tough" guys I know are in prison. But I have 5 tattoos and I sing lead vocals in a metal band. Does that count?
Close, I ride an ST1300, don't have any tats and work as an operator. HA
Not in IT, but hubby is. I'm a SAHM to 4 kids who drives an expedition & volunteers at the elementary school. Quite the opposite of the typical "image", LOL. I do have 1 little tat though, back from my 3 minute rebellious stage. 
In case this becomes an official poll:
1. I dont work in IT
2. I dont have any tatoos
3. I dont ride a Harley
But......
I do have a Honda, does that count for anything

Had 2 Harleys, have a few tattoos and have been working in IT for the last 12 years.
No motorcycles, no tattoos, allergic to most metals, so no usable piercings (ears, but can't wear earrings), no prison record. I'm an artist, I have three kids, lots of cats and other pets, and I listen to a lot of Tom Waits, Tom Petty... various other Toms. I tend to like storyteller musicians and goofy eighties music. I do have a tarantula, which most people consider a scary, tough girl/guy kinda pet, but it's really just kind of nerdy- they're generally docile, sweet, low maintenance, and they don't do much other than eat, so... yeah. Neither of us is quite as "tough" as advertised.
I used to have a Vespa, now I have a bicycle (so that I can zip through traffic jams, ride on pavements and park anywhere). It is pink, and has a shopping basket that my dog loves to ride in. No tattoos. Teacher.
Have owned:
1. A small moped
2. A 50 CC Suzuki that I had bored out to 90CC
3. A Yamaha DT125
4. A Kawasaki Z1000
Gave all that up and drove around in a 1972-73 VW Beetle. Now I drive a Chevy Malibu.
No tattoo, tooooooo much IT in the past, now a professional wise ....
At least smoking is rm -R

I work in technology, but only most of it is information technology. Some of it is decidedly not.
I do know and often hang out with a large number of harley pilots, but I'm very secure in my cager identity. They give me grief for being a cager...... right up until they are broken down 40 miles from town and need a guy with a pickup or a trailer to come rescue them. Then the rule is that I'll take the bike but not the rider if they complain about my cage.

Don't work in IT and drive a Yaris. 
I do have some ink, though. Mostly dragons that make me look tougher than I really am.

I ride a KTM. I don't have any tattoos. I'm retired at 40. I'm really bad with computers. I LOVE Metal
!!! But I also love funk, reggae, jazz, classical, etc. I will tell you one thing..... I am convinced there is a link between vaping and cat-people. It seems like every other avatar I see has a cat in it! For the record, I have 2 yellow labs and I will never own any cats. I don't dislike cats, I just don't trust them
