Bike Names - Does yours have one and how did you choose?

My Storck is called the "Stealth Storck"....well, because she is basically all black and sneaky I really need a better pic of her. She is prettier than the pic shows The other two don't reallly have names yet.....they just haven't "spoken" to me

trek pilot 5.2 is named bebe (pronounced baybay) which is an extension of blue bike which is what she is, but she is also baby baby my baby in every way. She agrees and told me so.

My Trek 7.4 FX is named Pearl. I figured pearls are precious and so is my bike - that and she's pearly white

I love all these ideas (and from the other thread too). I guess the right name will just come to me.

My bikes are called "my road bike" and "my mountain bike."

[ivorygorgon]

My Madone insisted on being named Henry. I have absolutely no idea why. My mountain bike earned the moniker "El Diablo," because, well, he IS the Devil.

My bike is called, "The Ninja," as she is black carbon fiber weave with two sneaky red pinstripes. It just popped into my mind when I first saw the bike, and it stuck.

Last night my husband and I were out for a ride and I was thinking about a name for my new road bike when it hit me. I have now named my new one "The Happy Pill". The reason I thought of this is because every year that I have to go in for my annual visit to the gyno I aways complain of anxiety around the time of the month. She always wants to put me on what I like to call happy pills. I have done a ton of research on this topic and have found that excercise has the same affect as taken synthetic drugs for this problem. I choose to ride my bike more around my time of the month instead of taking a pill a week before my period. The only side effect might be some soreness that will go away. I'll take that any day than popping a pill that only masks the symptom. This is just what I have found works for me.

Like "The Happy Pill"! Love exercise for all the good it does me. Also I'd add that a lot of mood issues can be improved by a healthful diet.

I've often thought I'd like to name my bike(s) but I just have not yet. Except that I just sorta call my bike "bike" as in hey bike let's go for a ride. Or c'mon bike, let's go. Once in a while it'll be, hey girl, let's get a move on. At times when I walk by her I'll pat her on the saddle and say, good bike or nice bike. So I guess her name is bike.

Not very original.
