Does your bike have a name?

[MINIskirt]

Does your bike (or bikes) have a name? If so, what is it?

[rocknrollgirl]

My Marin East Peak all mountain, full suspension is named Bob. Bob is sturdy and true, a bit heavy at 32.5 ponds, but man can he take a hit. He does not balk at mud, or snow, or rain, and can handle a gnarly downhill like nobody's business.

Last fall, along came Gidget. Gidget is my new Titus Racer X. She is little and fiesty, lite and fast and nimble. She does not like mud too much, but she climbs like a ibex.

There was a bit of jealousy on Bob part at first, but now they seem to be getting along. As a matter of fact, I think that they are making eyes at each other in the garage.

Maybe we will be expecting some tricycles in the fall.

I love' em both and the funny part is the guys that we mt bike with call them by name!

[Aggie_Ama]

My new Cannondale is Miranda. She is a little spitfire much like my favorite Sex in the City character and also a Texas singer I love, both named Miranda.:D

My former bike was Fiona. She was a pain in the rear but her intentions were good, much like Fiona in Shrek. ;)

[pooks]

My bike is Dynah but I never call her that. I've never managed to really be able to call my inamimate (sp?) objects by names, as much as I've tried! One of my closest friends in high school had an old green station wagon that her family had always called The Green Demon, so I've always loved the idea of naming things, but alas, the names don't stick!

[lauraelmore1033]

I've been waiting for my new (since feb) bike to tell me her name, but she hasn't done it. I suspect she is really a boy and I'm just not hearing his name...

[rocknrollgirl]

It took Gidget 4 months to tell me...it will happen.

My bikes don't use their names for some reason...but my MINI does. He goes by Henry. ;)

Seriously, I've tried naming all my bikes (one even named herself) but they just don't seem to stick.

Hey! I drive a MINI too! Her name is Moneypenny. :D Mostly because she has a navigation system that keeps me going in the right direction.

[makbike]

I will be the first to admit I'm not very creative or original. My little blue Univega Grand Turismo that I purchased some twenty years ago is know simply as "my little blue bike." I love my little blue bike!

My purple Giro 20 has no name. I guess I just do not have enough time on her to give her a name. I do sometime refer to her as "my purple bike" but that is it. I simply want to be able to ride her but due to a lower back injury I've had to stay off this bike (a result of improper fitting - does anyone know of someone who can fit a recumbent?) My back is feeling much better so I'm hoping this weekend BF and I can work on getting her to fit my short legs. I really do want to ride her again and soon.

[SJCzar]

My bike's name is Nathan. When I take him in for any work at my LBS my mechanic friend always calls him by his name.

Since my new bike will be a WSD her name is Natalie. I had to go visit her when the frame came in last week. Maybe she'll be built up by the time the weather turns more pleasant around here.

I also used to be a MINI owner. I miss my "Nigel" quite a bit. He was more fun than any other car I ever owned.

[missymaya]

My Giant OCR3's name is Blue. Not very creative since it is blue and black, but there's something about him that's calm but fun at the same time (yeah, my bike has characteristics).
My older white giant doesn't have a name yet. I'm stuck between Miranda or Kenny. I went to school with a girl named Kenny, she had electric blonde hair and was very expressive and opinionated. Older giant is white and has bright pink and aqua blue accents.

[Kimmyt]

I call my bike Lady. At first I didn't call her anything, but then everytime I referred to her, Lady slipped out so now I just end up calling her that.

[pooks]

Sidebar: Makbike, have you posted a pic of your purple bike, and if not, would you?

[Celeste]

My Bianchi She bike is named Celeste...that is her color and her name. May be kind of lame; but it seemed to fit her. And it's a pretty name for a pretty bike. ;)

[mary9761]

I probably posted on at least one of the other threads, I've slept (or tried to LOL) since then, but....
My Trek Navigator 50 is called The Little Navigator that Could. She's done more than any Navigator 50 should have in an entire lifetime already in just a year and half. 5700+ miles on a comfort bike, she's not stock Navigator anymore and is now a hybrid all of her own. Her first adjustment was an adjustable stem, then barends on her handlebars. She has had a rack added to the back (blew out her bottom bracket after 500 hard miles in a few months) and once she got her 1.5" Bontrager inverted treads instead of the 1.95 knobbies she came with, she was a lean, mean century machine :D
I fell in love with a Trek Pilot 1.2 WSD in Lava Red and she was to be named Pele (Lava Red) but we didn't get a chance to get to know each other sadly. The 2007 model (we've only met in photos) is Mineral Blue and she's been whispering her name is Lady Ice. Doubt we get well aquainted either (or at all until I'm back on a bike some time in the future) My favorite LBS (downtown location) closed a couple weeks ago so I don't get to have my periodic new bike smell fix now. :( Until I can make my way back to Carmel (22 mile ride one way) we won't be meeting soon.

[sgtiger]

My metallic green custom Rodriguez touring bike is Emmy which is short for Esmerelda as I think of her as my emerald gem.:rolleyes: :D

[GLC1968]

Hey! I drive a MINI too! Her name is Moneypenny. :D Mostly because she has a navigation system that keeps me going in the right direction.

I saw that in your sig. and that's why I mentioned mine. LOVE the name Moneypenny! What color is she? Mine's a 2004 silver w/ black bonnet stripes and I absolutely love him! Best car I've ever owned, hands down. :D

Funny thing is...I also just sold my 2006 Dolce Comp a couple of months ago...so we have lots in common! Her name was Tinkerbell, by the way. :)

[indysteel]

My Bianchi is named Sprout--because she's little and green. I have to admit that I "stole" the name from someone else on the Forum that has a Bianchi named Professor Sprout. Can't remember who that is. Mimitabby, maybe? In private, however, I call her Baby.


My bikes don't use their names for some reason...but my MINI does. He goes by Henry. ;)

I have a kitty named Henry. Love it!

[Trek420]

I've probably posted this elsewhere but here are my ponies names:

My road bike is Lavender Menace because she's a subtle shade of lavender, she's subtle, like me :cool:

My Commuter is Bradley but she's fast getting less "tank-like" :)

The Motobecane is tentatively named "Mixte Fixe", I wonder if Chris at Robinson Wheelworks will be done with her anytime soon?? Chris I know you Google the shop name weekly so - how's the bike?

I have a Giant TCR which is magenta, silver and black (T-Mobile colors). I call her Mags......and I just adore her!!!! :D

[pooks]

I've seen so many names here that I love. I hope imitation truly is the sincerest form of flattery, because I may end up using one of them when I get my new road bike.

[wannaduacentury]

My Trek hybrid is matte green and I finally named her Nessie(Loch Ness Monster) and she peeks out when she wants :) but doesn't get ridden as often as the Giant road bike-which btw is still nameless-Any ideas?

My clear coated carbon Giant is named 'Black Beauty' BB for short.

My specialized rockhopper mtb is a purdy shade of royal blue - he's Baloo.

My trek 2100 wsd is currently being called Margurite (she stops for margarita's for some reason....;) )

And my green hulky diamondback hybrid is called....the Hulk.

Happy bike naming:p

[Xrayted]

My road bike is a Novara Carema Pro. She is lime green and cream. Her name was Sweet Pea for about 6 months, but she has since renamed herself Zoom. What can I say, it's what she likes to do best. ;)
My mtb is a Specialized Hard Rock Pro. She is a carmelized champagne color with tan, dark brown and light green accents. Her name is Pounce. It fits her well. Of course after this past weekend, she could rename herself mudball... :D

[Kitsune06]

oh.... I thought she was avocado green...
what can I say? I have this strange avocado obsession...:p

[dingster1]

I can't decide between Big Red or El Rojo.:confused:

[Aggie_Ama]

I have named all my cars:

-Jezebel my 1986 Cutlass that was my first car. "Angry Johnny" by Poe was very popular and since I was the first with a license my car got around alot.;)
-Delilah my Neon. A friend and I watched "How Stella Got Her Groove Back" before heading on a bowling road trip. We thought it to be bad karma if the car wasn't named, so we stole the name of Whoopi's character.
-Venus my bright yellow New Beetle. I miss her, she was such a fabulous car.
-Layla my Saturn Vue. It was a POS. I called it Layla after the Eric Clapton song because my Layla always had me begging. She was in the shop 8 times in 15 months.
-Gretchen is my Dodge Caliber. Because it is name that is "Anything but cute". Not that I don't think it is a bad name, it just isn't cutesy.

I call our Dodge Ram Guenther because I can! :p Funny thing is my mom and husband refer to the cars by their names. My husband also called my Fuji by name.

[kan]

I ended up buying the Cannondale R800 (and have started saving up for a tri bike), and when I was describing the bike to my friends, I said that it was silver, like the streak in my hair (which I am adamant is not gray). So I've been thinking of her as "the Silver Streak" ever since. What can I say? We compliment each other and so far seem to go well together.

[KSH]

This is Buttercup- SUCK IT UP BUTTERCUP!

[Trekhawk]

This is Buttercup- SUCK IT UP BUTTERCUP!

LOL - love the bike and the name.

Only one of my three bikes has a name. Its my lovely orange Juliana she is the flying pumpkin. It was just after Halloween when I got her and the kids said she reminded them of a pumpkin and she has been know to fly on occasion.:D

[sulis]

My cherry red specialized Allez is named Wolfgang (ala one of my fave composers - Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart). Because to me its a classic that never goes out of style. :cool:

And of course, for all my friends that think my cycling borders on obsession, rather than always saying I'm going for a bike ride, I can simply say I'm going out with Wolfgang. Then it sounds like I'm dating a sexy german guy. :p

[pooks]

A name, a name! Now that I'm ready to get rid of her, she suddenly has a name.

"The Beast" (as mentioned above) does fit her quite well because I've had to tame her more or less, to force her up hills, to force myself to ride her at times. She weighs almost 40 pounds!

Since we both have Dynamic brand bicycles, I arbitrarily named mine Dynah and my husband's Mick. It went no farther until tonight.

But as I was fighting my way uphill this evening "Dyna-Beast" popped into my head, then "Dyna-saur."

Even though "Dyna-saur" actually may be better, I think she will be "Dyna-Beast" in my head from now on.

[KayTee]

I, too, have a bike named Fred, a fast and ultralight '02 Fondriest Carb Level with Campy Record 10 and all kinds of carbon fiber bits hung all over him. When I ride him I feel like a fred. I bought him after a particularly good season but have been on a downhill slide since then.

PeeWee is my '06 S&S-coupled steel IndyFab Crown Jewel - for my Great Adventures, get it? And Barbie, a.k.a. Barbie's Playbike, is my winter bike, a 1990 SLX steel Eddy Merckx Corsa Extra pictured below. She was repainted last year (and named for) her original Team Weinmann colors. What looks like blue paint is actually a deep purple. Quite flamboyant, but she rides and handles like a dream, and I love her.

And some call our tandem The Mothership.

[pooks]

Way cool colors, there!

[pooks]

KSH, I just noticed your post -- Buttercup is one hott bike.

Do you have trouble keeping those yellow tires yellow?

[kellichou]

I have a Trek 7300 hybrid, bright red. Even though I wanted to give it a female gender, the name Marcel has stuck. I have an obsession with Marcel Proust, and so this Marcel can take me on adventures on the bike trail and around town.

So like Sulis, I can say, "I'm going out with Marcel," and friends & colleagues will think I'm going somewhere with a hot Frenchman or something. :)

[BleeckerSt_Girl]

Hey you guys, I love this idea! I have a blue Rivendell Rambouillet (Rambouillet being a village in France reknowned for their sheep breed), and I've had a terrible time trying to name it. I've always sensed it was a boy bike. In 2005 DH and I visited Quebec and loved learning some French. Now I'm going with the French theme and going to look up sexy French male names- I bet one will jump right out at me! (a name that is, not a French male...)

Thanks for the obvious-but-not-obvious idea! :) :)

[Cyclo Kitty]

My commuter is called Pale Horse, it's a white Fisher Aquila with panniers and I have a work situation that sometimes required me to be Wyatt Earp to some Ringos. :(

My 'cross bike is the Sea Snail, because it is a Cannondale. It's turquoisey blue, which is sea-like, but I'm the snail:rolleyes:

I have a green Raleigh Superbe three speed step-through I call Mrs. Slocombe, since she often had green hair on Are You Being Served?

And my single speed conversion blue Bianchi that's not done yet is called Frankenbike, or just plain Bikey. Good Bikey. :)

My husband's Kona Kula is the Weasel, because it moves really fast.

I sure do love my bikes....!!

[pooks]

Mrs. Slocombe! I love it!

[7rider]

Geez.

I never even *thought* of naming my bikes until I read about it on this site.

I graffiti'ed up the chainstay of my Seven with a Sharpie drawing of a bunny (need to get the LBS owner to pen the VW Rabbit on the top tube - he's a much better artist than I) and planned to have a headset cover made up that said "Quick Like a Bunny" -- ha! that's called irony, folks -- but PurelyCustom doesn't make 1" headset covers anymore, so I was SOL. So I guess "Bunny" is it by default.

The commuter doesn't have a name. The mountainbike: well, I guess I could name it "The flat-tired dust collector"!

[silver]

My bikes don't have official names (yet)

The old one, the '05 Trek 1000, used to be called Silver. Because I'm a silversmith and silver is my thing. And the bike was about half silver in color. But then we had a wreck. For a while he (my bikes are male) was called the wrecked bike. I was going to just use it for a "beater bike" like maybe to the grocery store. But we got him fixed and now it's my travel bike and foul weather bike. And every time I get on him, ( :o ) I think he feels like putting on old blue jeans... so now he is sometimes referred to as "Old Blue Jeans".....but usually he is just called "the 1000"

The new one, the 07 trek Madone 5.0 with a matte carbon finish with silver decals, was to be called Silver, but is sometimes referred to as "My New Blue Jeans", but mostly called "the Madone." I keep thinking his name is "Mad One" but it still doesn't fit.

someone should ask Mr. what his car names are :p

My car is "the Tri Mobile" ('97 toyota sienna minivan)

[lauraelmore1033]

I'd mentioned I was waiting for my new bike to tell me her name and now the old hybrid bike has told me that she's not happy being called ol' Klunky, but would prefer instead to be addressed as Victoria. She's lavender and rather feminine in spite of her girth and is not really all that old. I suppose she has a point.

[Wahine]

I have a yellow Specialized stumpjumper M4 from back in the day. Her name is Sally.

I have a green Specialized Allez Pro that I got the next year. She was much more fussy about tuning and potholes and things. She reminded me of a southern belle. Very pretty and flashy but not meant for being exposed to rigorous conditions. Her name was Georgia. But now that I've riden some smaller WSD bikes, carbon fibre frames and the like, I've started referring to her as the Jolly Green Giant. I don't think she likes it very much. I still love her.

[Cella66]

I would love to know the name of my new sweet red trek pilot that I bought last week, but since I haven't been able to ride her with this crappy weather, I am calling her dusty for now...

[Python]

Mine's called Allie (Allie the Raleigh:rolleyes: ).

Now we have another identical bike but haven't given it a name yet.

[pooks]

That's easy! Allie the Other!

KayTee! I'm so glad you posted a pic of Barbie! I know I talked about my bike's name somewhere - possibly on the "IF Riders" thread....

My bike (the only one as of now, though I am trying to save my pennies so I can catch up with KayTee :D ) is named Godiva. Not because of the chocolate, but because she is an IndyFab Ti Crown Jewel and she is totally naked. Not a speck of paint on her. Now if her rider only had long, flowing blonde hair to go with it....oh yeah, and then there's the girlish figure, too :eek:

[Gidiup]

I name my bikes too. My hybrid (Specialized Crossroad) is named "Blu". My road bike (Specialized Allez - '02)(now my husband's) is named "GO" Allez is French for Go, right? And my new love, Ruby (Specialized Ruby Comp '06). She came with her name. My husband contributes to my biking madness by letting Ruby stay in our living room. I can't help it. I like to look at her when I'm I not riding. My husband even asked if Ruby enjoyed the ride when I get back. I think this all started when I was a kid and I thought of my bike as being a pet horse. (much less expensive, by the way). Ruby and I are going on our first century in June as part of the MS150 ride.

Me Too!! I keep Celeste in my living room as well when not riding. She is just so pretty to look at and it keeps me motivated to keep riding.

I also am going on my first Century ride in June, but to Lake Tahoe. I am nervous and excited all at the same time. Good luck to you on your ride, Gidiup!

[Fredwina]

I have three Bikes:
A cannondale road bike, which either goes by the Old Grey Mare (even thought it's actually Sliver w/ red accents) I got it on 9/11/2002, and it has about 17,000 miles on it, so it's old, but it get where I want to go.
A Cannondale Mountain bike - which is Captain Peg Leg It has the Lefty "fork".
A Bike friday - which is just Friday, although some think I should call the Folding tank - it's quite heavy , and built with some very low gears.

[KayTee]

KayTee: BEAUTIFUL bike! my so has a Merckxx, I love how they look. The colors on yours--georgeous! how long have you had her?

Barbie was an eBay bargain about 6 years ago. She had cruddy parts and wrecked up paint, so we upgraded components gradually and then decided that she really needed a repaint so she could look as lovely as she rides. I ride her every winter and on some social rides - she's heavier than my other bikes, so I get a better workout riding her. Hope your son enjoys his Merckx as much as I do this one!

[Hub]

The Giant in my avatar is named Boo-Sikki- because my brother (nicknamed Boo) gave it to me, the Trek 5200, on semi-permanent loan is Old Blue. Brother's Madone is called the Sacred Madone.

[Zen]

I have toyed with the idea the idea of naming my bike Myvagina for the intrinsic comedy value.
But i think i'll just go with Serenity.

[KnottedYet]

My new Kona Smoke is named "Mitzi G.O.V." cuz she's so butch, and that is a silly femme mutation of "Missy Giove."

And if you don't know who Missy Giove is, well, then I guess I'm old enough to be yer mother.... :eek:

[alimey]

Oh yes - they all have names!!:

Mouse Bike - this is my silver Cannondale. It's about 43cm & when my husband showed a picture of him once I had built him to a friend, the friend commented "that's not a real bike - that's a mouse bike"

Ant bike - my blue Principia commuter. He came right after Mouse Bike & was bought from my friend Antonia - not sure how flattered she is now!

Mr T - our trek tandem

Peggy - my new pink Bike Friday - called Pegasus because it flies (in both senses of the word) - Peggy - who is really a boy, even has his name on a plate on the bike

Micky - my Terry Dolan track bike. Micky as in Micky Dolan - also this bike is a close friend of Mouse Bike . . .

My husband's bikes also have names:

Mars - his Planet X track bike - because it's red & it's the god of war

Big Blue - guess why?

Wagner - this is his mtb - I bought it for him an an engagement present - so it is the ring cycle . . .

Sushi - his Fuji track bike - one of the few girls in our stable

OK - I think that's all. We are currently having our house remodelled - so we can't even find all the bikes & can hardly even remember our own names!!

[Tater]

Let's see...the '04 blue Specialized Dulce Elite is Khamsin, ('desert wind' in Arabic, I think.)

The '05 red Raleigh M40 mtb is Java, she's my bomb proof commutermobile and better than a cup o' joe in the mornings.

My new ride, an '06 green Giant TCR cw just recently received her name: Greta.

[wannaduacentury]

I finally named my silver Giant Casper. It seems to fit and easy to remember fun name-although not real creative :rolleyes: Jenn
