    I see I'm not alone . . . thank goodness

    I name my bikes too. My hybrid (Specialized Crossroad) is named "Blu". My road bike (Specialized Allez - '02)(now my husband's) is named "GO" Allez is French for Go, right? And my new love, Ruby (Specialized Ruby Comp '06). She came with her name. My husband contributes to my biking madness by letting Ruby stay in our living room. I can't help it. I like to look at her when I'm I not riding. My husband even asked if Ruby enjoyed the ride when I get back. I think this all started when I was a kid and I thought of my bike as being a pet horse. (much less expensive, by the way). Ruby and I are going on our first century in June as part of the MS150 ride.

    Me Too!! I keep Celeste in my living room as well when not riding. She is just so pretty to look at and it keeps me motivated to keep riding.

    I also am going on my first Century ride in June, but to Lake Tahoe. I am nervous and excited all at the same time. Good luck to you on your ride, Gidiup!
    I just keep telling myself..."I am the Tortise; slow and steady finishes the race." I am the Tortise, coo coo ca choo.

    I have three Bikes:
    A cannondale road bike, which either goes by the Old Grey Mare (even thought it's actually Sliver w/ red accents) I got it on 9/11/2002, and it has about 17,000 miles on it, so it's old, but it get where I want to go.
    A Cannondale Mountain bike - which is Captain Peg Leg It has the Lefty "fork".
    A Bike friday - which is just Friday, although some think I should call the Folding tank - it's quite heavy , and built with some very low gears.
