Beauty, eh? I'm for "casper"- I can see you couming out of a fog bank, like a ghost...
Be yourself, to the extreme!

I think I'd call her Ghost.
And you could be the Ghost Rider.

ENJOY!!!!!!!!! I am curious what bars you have on there. They look shallow and short reach, always a good thing in my book!

Congrats! Hope you have many safe and happy miles together for sure. My current bike is a Giant. She is white, brushed silver, and black. It's SO nice because you can mix her up with anything... it's all good
.
My current girl is too big for me. So, I'm shopping for a new ride. I have a whitie in mind to buy, and will save that name for myself
. My current girl is nameless for some reason
.
Hmmm... how about Daisy--simple, pretty, but wild and free. Dove... white, graceful, flies through the wind with ease. Lightening... but, that is a bit boy-ish. Or, you could say she is sorta like "sugar"... because she's sooo sweet.
EDIT: btw, those white sprint Keo Look pedals are *HOT*! I had them ordered to put on my current white girl, but they were a bit tight for me (sent em back). But, I still might try them cuz they looked so nice with the white bike!Last edited by Miranda; 03-11-2009 at 09:39 AM.

I have a Casper cookie jar that my mother bought in the '50s, so I think that's a cute name for a bike. But when I read BOOHOO in your post, I thought THAT (Boo) would be a great name for this bike. It also reminds me of the Boo in Super Mario Brothers.

Tuck, the cookie jar makes me
What style of bike is it? It's so pretty and you'll look nice and cool on it in the heat of the summer.

Ooh Kitty... that name makes me think of designers... Prettish!
hee hee.. I'm S*x in the City fan... Immediately thought of all those fabulous labels Carrie Bradshaw gets to wear. (I'd never buy that stuff, but it looks great)
Samantha maybe? Nah... Marilyn still sounds good, yeah?
I'm sure something will solidify on Friday when I take her out. (Lordy.. please pray it doesn't rain - right now we're at 30-40% chance) As long as its at least in the 50s and NOT raining.. I'll go. I just don't wanna trash her on the first ride! <sniff, snivel>
In the meantime..please keep throwing those names at me!
