A few months ago we replaced my trusty old Volvo with a fancy schmancy BMW. I wanted an x5 but the husband INSISTED on a 5 series sedan, so... sigh... we have a sedan. It's a great car, but my husband is sort of a FREAK about it. My old volvo (BO BO was her name) had various tri stickers on her and I really felt like she was MY car. Well of course in this fancy new ride came with a "no tri sticker" stipulation, so the negotiations began. He agreed to a personalized plate and license plate frame.
So today I ordered IRNMOM. I wanted TRI ME, but that was already taken. Now I just need to find a finishers plate frame. They ran out of them at the expo, so hopefully they get them back in.
Anyhoo... Soon I'll be cruising the streets as IRNMOM. Sweet huh??

SWEET!
That totally rocks! HA!
Some get a tattoo... you got a liscene plate!
You need to post a picture when you get it!"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather, to skid in broadside thoroughly used-up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming: WOW WHAT A RIDE!!!!"

Woo-hoo! Sweet ride, and license plate! I agree, we need pics when you get it in (both of the car and the plate- but mostly the plate).

My plate is BIKNPAM... one day an older gentleman asked me if I was "Bikini" Pam. I had to say "No... do I look like a Bikini Pam?" His response was "Ohhhhh, it's Biking Pam!"

I love it! Much better than "tri me", which has a somewhat salacious sound. Looking forward to pix! Great negotiations with Tony, BTW. L.

On my tri board, someone said they saw some plates on a car at a race:
NO DNF
Greatness!

I had a friend who had the plate KONA 2000.
I like IRNMOM better.***********
