Story behind your posting name?

[spokewench]

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.

[Mr. Bloom]

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

Yeah Clock, I assumed that was the connection...aren't you in theatre? Costumier?

[malkin]

The familiar cat of one of the witches in Macbeth.
Also gray.

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

[MommyBird]

The nickname my husband gave me after our first son was born.

[twin]

I am a twin and we both teach at the same school and we are art teachers.

[ridenread]

two of my favorite activities, riding and reading

[wanzar]

My name is just how the telemarketers and salespeople pronounce my name. I've even had a few people as far off as Wilson or Williams. You would think since they are trying to make a sale that they would make an effort to learn the names. But thats a whole different story.

[rocknrollgirl]

At the time, I was very into both rock climbing and mountain biking....
rocknrollgirl.

Now I just mt bike, but it was too much trouble to change it.

[Lifesgreat]

It expresses how I feel about my life's situation-the good and the occasional bad.

[Grits]

Girl Raised In The South, of course!

[Raindrop]

Living in the Pacific Northwest...it just seems appropriate.

[Trek-chick]

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

[mudmucker]

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.

[Jolt]

I tend to have a lot of energy. It also goes quite well with my signature line... On a nursing forum my posting name is "Angie O'Plasty" since I am interested in cardiology and love bad puns.

[ClockworkOrange]

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

I saw the film at the cinema back in 1971, cool but also very noir! As I said, I made the mistake of getting it all around the wrong way.

Yeah Clock, I assumed that was the connection...aren't you in theatre? Costumier?

Unfortunately not, purely named after my bike.

You see my bike was given to me by my son, 10 years ago and since then I lost a lot of weight, got over a bad back problem blah blah blah. Hence I wanted to be named after my bike.

Phew, isn't this is all hard work.
