Does your bike have a 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. Mostly because she has a navigation system that keeps me going in the right direction.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

Moneypenny is a 2003 Indi Blue (the darker blue) Cooper with white roof & white bonnet stripes. I absolutely love that car! The handling is just unbelievable!

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!
