Congrats on your beautiful new bike! And he definately looks like a “he”. I wanted to name Spirit with a guy name but she is a deep, dark purple and is a woman’s bike so she is a “she”. My car “Hawk” (former FHP patrol car) is definately a “he” cuz he still has his spotlight and pusher bars and is painted all black. Here’s to many healthy, happy miles with your new bike and let us know what you name him!

Sweet! Definitely a "him." Congratulations.

Very nice!
And I agree about "him". My bike is girly but tough so I named her Dara (she just got some pink handlebar tape so everyone knows it). My truck is "Leroy" cause it's badarse. Hee!
Thanks everyone! He is definitely hot! He still doesn't have a name but I'm thinking about it.
I also have road shoes/pedals on this new bike and the clipless on my FCR. I went out tonight on 'him' for the sole purpose of practicing getting in and out of these new pedals. Well, I stink at it!!! How long will it take to get this - will it ever be as easy as the clipless/mtb set-up?!?!I feel like such a dork!
Sweet!!!Congrats. I'm sure you two will have many happy adventures together.
Thanks for posting pictures.
~~~swoon~~~be still my heart~~~It seems most refer to their bikes as 'her'...this one seems more like a 'him'.
Wow, you lucky gal! I would say I'm jealous but naa....I'm truly happy for you, you are going to really enjoy that bike! Ya did good girl!!
