    I, as usual, got all confused.

    My bike is made by 'Orange', a bike made in the UK and the model is 'Clockwork', limited edition.

    Anyway, I should have called myself Orange Clockwork but I got it around the wrong way, hence ClockworkOrange!

    Mine's fairly simple - at one time I was heavily involved in a large cycling club here in Orange County (CA) called the Bicycle Club or Irvine or BCI. In fact, at one time I was the membership director and had set up an account as bcipam for inquiries. The name just struck and I have been using it since although on another Board I have changed the name because I no longer ride with BCI. I might have to do that here someday...

    Frankly I got tired of club riding - too many goozo crazy people. I now have a nice little group of friends I ride with or I ride alone.

    I live in backwoods country, don't go into town but about twice or thrice a week, spend a lot of time housewifin', hiking, (soon to be more) riding... and such.

    But that is the title of the cool movie of the 70's ... "Clockwork Orange" (or was it 60's?)

    I rode on a 24 hour 4-lady team for a few years and our team name was Spokewenches. Let's see if I can remember back that long ago; one member was double butted; one was bladed, one was something guage (can't remember now; and me Captain Spoke.

    For some reason all the bikes I have owned (5 total) have been made by Trek/Gary Fisher (same company). I didn't intend for it to happen, I guess they just fit me well

    I'm an environmental scientist and back in the day a long time ago I used to delineate wetlands. In addition to identifying upland/wetland plants I also took soil samples of hydric soils. We also would often have to trek through and across the wetlands to get to the other side or continue through the acreage to find the next one. Hence the name mudmucker. Oftentimes we would be suceptible to the "blackleg" syndrome depending on the conditions and where we stepped. I don't delineate wetlands anymore but I continue to trail run, romp, hike, and mt bike in rainy/snowy weather.

    Also gray.

    I guess when I become completely a malkin in RL then I'll change it.
