    I named my blue bike for a flower too! There is a beautiful wildflower called Speedwell (which I thought was appropriate!) and then I discovered the Latin name for the genus was Veronica. So, her name is Veronica Speedwell. I call her Ms. Speedy because she is, and I'm not ...

    I also finally found a name for my Ruby. "BlueBell" It's the result of her getting stolen. The police were able to identify the bike and recover it because I'd replaced the white handlebar tape with blue.

    Love that name too -- lots of flower names for bikes lately!

    She is my therapist! I just feel any anger or frustration melting away when I go out and ride my CC.
