    Does your bike have a theme song?

    My Waterford has a Bugs Bunny spoof of Wagner's "Ring Saga" (with Flosshilde instead of Brunnhilde in the lyrics) as her theme song.

    My lust-object Surly Crosscheck has "Born To Be Alive" by the Disco Kings.

    My temporary Kona Smoke had a song by No Doubt.

    What's your bike's theme song?

    I got the name of my bike from my favorite country singer, Miranda Lambert. http://www.mirandalambert.com/music/

    I always hear her song "Kerosene" when riding. It is my most constant ear worm.

    St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion). Written as the theme song for the movie, it became the theme for Rick Hansen's round-the-world wheelchair journey to raise awareness and funds for spinal cord research in the mid 80's. The lyrics are stirring, and the music just rocks. It's my theme song for my Gitane (the only bike I had back then), but I make sure I listen to it no matter which bike I happen to be riding, especially when I'm having a tough ride.

    hmmm

    Umm well I don't normally associate names & songs with my bikes however i'll give it a shot..

    "I drink alone "George thoroughgood & the destroyers...I often try and change the lyrics to "I Bike Alone" as I normally ride by myself on & off road

    Otherwise i'm happy with Queen/Roger taylor-Fight from the inside on my roadie

    On my Scott(mtb)-Led Zep-Whole lotta love..

    C desperately trying to remember a whole heap of songs to keep me company next weekend..
