Does your bike have a name?

[RedFeend]

My car has a name. The Batmobile. Lots of people have pet names for their cars. What about your pedal bike? Just a thought. I've had an awful night, suffering from a flu-like bug and had this banal question come into my head. I'm tied OK. That's my excuse.

Sometimes mine is called 'You B&stard'

 

[ianrauk]

'This one', 'That one' or 'That one'.

None of my possessions have names. IME that's something many women do, but few men. I'm not sure why - perhaps we wouldn't be able to remember them.

The manufacturer kindly supplied names with all mine, usually on a nice little enamelled brass badge riveted to the head tube.

Only when my gears are slipping and my feet slide of my DMR vaults, then and only then does my bike get given a name.. usually c**t chops, or something similar, as i bury my pedal into my shin >.< but in all honesty this has happened only the once, so it's generally called Cannondale

 

[Licramite]

well my mtb has a name or at least I address it as ,you - heap of Furkin junk - as it dumps its chain on me or refuses to change gear half way up hill.
(I do often wonder what it calls me - fat git - springs to mind)

My best bike is called Titanium Beauty. It calls me lardy git.

 

[BigonaBianchi]

My Tourer is called - Shinto after the donkey in a book called Spanish steps I never read
My Bianchi is called - Celeste
My Peugot is starting to get called Hack so I suppose I could call it that

 

[Kiwiavenger]

[s7ephanie]

Mine's called Dick Turpin.
Because everywhere I go I hold up traffic.

 

[2wheelsgeth]

Frankenbike, because it's had so many different parts added and removed.

 

[DWiggy]

That Fing big...well thats what my misses call her

Frankenbike, because it's had so many different parts added and removed.

Well that's wrong: Frankenstein was the name of the scientist, not the creature.
In Mary Shelley's novel it is referred to as either the creature or the monster.
