I have a lovely silver and lilac Giant also, although mine is the OCR version for roads. Her name is Iris.... frequently Wheezy Iris when I'm in the midst of allergy/asthma season. I love the color, but then, I love most anything with purples in it. Enjoy your new bike, may you have many miles together.

Names?
What about Lilac or Violet? Orchid. Orchidee. (I knew something/someone named that, but can't remember the details!) Iris.
Sure is pretty! And my favorite color.***********

Great looking bike! I cracked up when I read that Walmart wanted to blame their bike's problems on it being outside. Oh, yeah, didn't you know? Those bikes can only be ridden in the basement!
Enjoy your new ride! L.Run like a dachshund! Ride like a superhero! Swim like a three-legged cat!

I have a Giant Nutra that's 13-14 years old (with a Free Radical and blender now). It's got about 20,000 miles on it now (but a few parts have been replaced - like the chain and gears andeverything). You're gonna love the BOulder after bangin' around on the Walton Special.
