[Sittingduck]

Chuffy's road bike is called Luther.

Called mine Luther because he's the Black Prince of Darkness, with a firey and slightly evil / twisted nature. Named after my first ride on him (2 miles before chain snapped)

Aye, sure she does!

[Baggy]

It gets worse!

We also have
The Cardinal (TC) - GT Rave
Oscar - Giant Coldrock
and Uncle Monty - Kona Ute (on loan)

Sittingduck,"Luther" is so called because Chuffy already had The Cardinal (and seemed to be hung up on religious names..!)

 

[Baggy]

My next bike is going to be called "Wee Angus".
