Does your bike have a name?

[marni]

I have a bike of many different parts. And right now it has mis-matching tires. So i've thought of calling it "Ragamuffin" but that's a little long. I usually just call it "bikey bike". Which isn't much shorter, i guess. But kind of follows calling my boyfriend's car "Jeepy Jeep". Not very creative.

for the bike of many parts, mongerel, pot pourri, mixmatched, heinz 57, scrappie and bits (as in bits and bobs or bits and pieces) spring to mind.

My Trek pilot the one and only bike I own started out as blue bike which got shortened to BB which got lengthened to BeBe because I had a huge blue stuffed bunny in my younger years that was referred to as BB and I thought BeBe (pronounced a la francais as BeyBey)was a little leaner, meaner and more fun.

How about Frankenbike?

I have a Felt Z85 that my husband named 'Black Beauty' and that she is. I have a 28 year old horse and I believe he thought if he named the bike that I would not buy another horse

I call "her" Ruby. It is a Ruby Elite. Guess I wasn't original. Funny thing is I picked Rubysoho as my board name loooooong before I actually bought (or even knew about) my Ruby. Seems it worked out nicely.



ETA ... my guy friend named his bikes. Nitro and Titan.
