Name that Bike!

Love it Mary!!


another option: Icarus

Treks name for their silvery-blue winged custom paint.......and since LeMond is produced by Trek you wouldn't be deviating from the LeMond brand.

OK, two clever ladies in the crew. ABQ for short, maybe, as the full name would be quite a mouthful. Icarus sounded familiar to me, so I Googled it:

Icarus (Greek Mythology) was son of Daedalus, famous for his death by falling into the sea when he flew too close to the sun, melting the wax holding his artificial wings together.

Hmm... sounds kind of dangerous!!


By the way, Mary .... I don't call 'em hot flashes, I call 'em POWER SURGES!

BUT, even though he eventually fell into the sea, we often forget that first, Icarus flew, and he flew so boldly and so high that he saw the brilliance of the sun. I read a poem to this effect, so can't take credit for the idea--still, it's interesting, no?

ok - every time you called it ABQ I will think you're talking about my home town: Albuquerque or ABQ for short. LOL

How about just the obvious: Silver. Remember the Lone Ranger: "Heigh-o, Silver!" (Oops, is my age showing? )

[quint41]

Well, I think a name has been determined ....

When I posed the question of a name to the guy who recommended me to this LBS, he instantly replied, "Freedom." I said, "I used to ride a horse named Freedom."

There you go. Freedom II. And so it shall be named!

After all, I am getting this bike just as my two DD's have entered Junior and Senior year in high school, I've been gaining personal freedom at a record pace recently and will continue to do so as they leave the nest. Which is one of the reasons I'm getting so into biking now -- I'll need something to occupy my time when they leave me!

Freedom it is!

Countdown: 4 hours and 42 minutes to the adoption!

Beautiful! May you and your Freedom have a long, happy road together.

An excellent name. My first road bike is yet to be named. I am a bad bike mommy. I just cannot think of a name.
