Wanted: Clever Team Name

**quint41** · 02-09-2007, 10:54 AM

I'm putting together a team for the MS Bike Tour in Connecticut. We are mostly single middle-aged riders of all levels and abilities. I want to give us a fun, clever, laugh-out-loud team name, but I need the help of some very clever people. Anyone want to take a stab at giving us a name??

While I'm on the subject, if any of you are interested in joining the team, let me know! I'll let you know when the team is posted on the official website so that you can sign up. And we'll also be getting together for training rides when spring gets here!

Thanks!

Louise

I just saw a show on the Discovery Channel that might work:

Plastic Surgery Disasters.

The funniest letter of the alphabet is P, a name with 3 P's
would be funny; like Potbelly Packing Pagans, or Persnickety Pretentious Pedallers
or Practically Pathetic Pedallers.

My last team name was Bonzo Boeing Bikers.

I love the one my neighbor came up with for our ride across Nebraska last year:

All hilarious team names, you guys. Divingbiker, I often hear that witch-on-a-bicycle music from The Wizard of Oz playing in my head when I'm flying down a hill.

My sister-in-law is a radiologist and she got together with her female colleagues to play golf. They called themselves Docs Without Rocks.

Hey, How'd you get my photo diver LOL... I swear that soundtrack plays through my head EVERY time I get on the Navigator

MS Bike Tour Connecticut.................an anagram for you:

Buttock's Emetic Unicorn

Well, it's different!

Let's see ...
The plastic surgery one might offend some of the more sensitive members.
The team will be mixed gender, so I can't go with the Spinster name (although I love it!)
Docs, we are not, and as mentioned before, some members do have rocks!

I do sort of like Pathetic Pedallers, though!

Here are some others on my list:

Team Anti-Gravity
Shake & Rattle Rollers
Riding from the Reaper
The Hartford Wheelers (instead of Whalers)
Team Saddlesore
Team Re-Cycle
Team FOG (Freaking Old Group)
FACT (Fat *** Cycling Team)
Wrinkle Riders
Past Perfect
Cycling Geezers

or Bucket Connecticism Rout? or M-Bucket Science Icon Trout? or MIT Scenic Bucket Contour?

I think the anagram idea is great. You could have loose letters somehow and do like on the John Cleese series "Faulty Towers", changing the letters around each day.

The wrinkle riders idea also triggered an association: Anybody remember the book "A wrinkle in time"? It's sci-fi for kids. I think I read it when my Mom was on the purchasing committee for the children's library -- she used us as consultants. Anyway, a time wrinkle is (as I recall) an instantaneous way to do space and/or time travel. So as Wrinkle Riders you could be taking time travel short-cuts.
