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