Calling bikes "she"

please dont do this.

I've named most of my bikes.
Bicyclese
Dreadnought
PlasticFantastic

None have a gender

Yes, please refrain. It's awful.

I think it has to do with the fact that "bicycle" is a female noun in few European countries, but yes I agree, it doesn't sound right.

Good thread, couldn't agree more.

Yes please. It makes me cringe.

I'm glad I don't know anyone who does this

three of mine have male names:
Jake the snake
Frank the tank
and Laurie (Dawe)
and the njs is just called "The Bridgestone"

My old beater was called 'the widomaker'.

calling bikes " silly names " ..... please, don't do this

How has this not been a topic yet? It's awful

calling bikes " silly names " ..... please, don't do this

This too.

It's almost as bad as referring to your partner or spouse as Mr or Mrs {username}.

What about the term 'readers wife'?

Many readers share one wife? Or reader's wife?

I just assume that any dude that calls his bike "she" is fucking it.

yes agreed, they already have names don't they?

fucking lit

Ftfy :)
