Nah, I've Joe and Bob, although the latter could have blackadder significance. Bluey is now someone else's, the others don't get names, so I don't get attached to them and weep when they're killed.

No thesis is now, its ok. Im still not sure what its about and i have 2 weeks left.

BD was rainy. BBQ + rain isnt that great.

:( sorry to hear that.. on both counts.

my bikes are all boys, too. my current rides are mark the mercian, and ed the eddy merckx.

I call my vivalo the white horse!

I caller my black record conversion 'the duke'

mostly because I found a sticker which said the duke on it.

Then that said bike had an accident and died.

Never again!

My Vivalo's called Stella, haven't named the other yet

I do refer to both of them as 'she', like the cats mother

My Vivalo's called Stella

My Plug got named Susan by a friend...

cannondale is called "The Tank", thanks to Shin

I'm shocked that there isn't already a thread about this...

What do you call your bike(s), and why?

My last one was called Ruby Brown, because she was, erm, red and brown.

My current one is named Trigger. Mainly because it evolved from the old bike after the replacement of so many parts, a bit like 'Triggers broom', which had had four new handles and 3 new heads.

Et toi?

Bike. Because it's what is. Unimaginative I know, sorry.

name your bike?
You need help bro.

the serotta, the 29er, the mather, the commuto-x bike

the fixie skidder, the mountain bike, the road bike, the drop bar hybrid

The steel and the mash, Not very imaginative. My bmx is called Sandra.

I called it a bastard today, because I double punctured in the pissing rain

nag, track, ratracer, commuter, tt, road
