I picked a name for my bike...

[Smilie]

Aye Aye Captain! Glad you found a name you like!

Beam me up Scotty...

I like the name! I used to have a horse called Captain.

Sounds like a great name! Let’s hear it for the Trekkies - count me in! I was wondering if any of you named your rides. My husband was so amused when we first married because I named each of his vintage cars, and now my bike. I call mine “Spirit” as I feel like a free spirit whenever we are riding and because I have a passion for birds of prey - spirits of the sky. Besides, she is a very dark purple color and I got tired of calling her “purple pavement eater”! Anyone else have names for their bikes?

[IGGY]

yup! But I haven't admitted it to ANYONE until now.

Esperanza! No idea why. But I like it. You have to say it loudly with authority! large swinging hand gestures are good too!

I'm a pale skinned mutt of ethnicity ranging from english, scotch, french, irish, and welsh. I YEARN to be exotic. Unfortunately, I'm stuck with pink and sweaty. But, my bike can be swift and dance the salsa, even if I can't!

My husband is going to literally fall over when he reads this.

Am I gonna regret this post?

I like it! I never thought about naming my new bike until recently and after reading some of these threads. I think it's a great idea and now have to find the perfect name for mine.

I named my Hybrid a couple of months ago--it's called "That'll do". Like in the movie "Babe."

My bike is Mad Dawg Madone! Mad Dawg is my second road bike since we started riding Memorial Day weekend. I now ride a Trek Madone 5.1...I didn't bond with her right away like I had my first road bike, which was named right away, but as soon as I named her...we're bonded! I can't wait until I'm ready to really hit the hills and ride her like a Mad Dawg!

We're doing the Solvang Prelude 50-mile on November 1st and I'm hoping to tear up those hills! Then on to the Solvang Century in March!!!!

Name it and claim it!!!!
