I've named the Brompton (and opinion)

[andyJH]

I have had a chance to get a bit of riding under my belt and have to say that the Brompton C-line explore is a very fun and functional bike to ride. It is also proving to be the answer that I hoped it would be to my elevator and storage woes. Living where I do means you do some climbing no matter what direction you go and the reduced gearing is helpful. The lost top end is not too important to this 62 year old.

I've named it Blueberry and here it is beside the mighty Fraser River in Downtown New Westminster, BC.

In the Canadian Football League (think NFL football) we have a team called the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. I was going to call it Blue Bromber, but alas I have always been partial to the BC Lions.

My first Brompton I bought used, it’s a 2015 Orange /Black M6L . I call it Obi-Wan, a play on it being my first Brompton, and Orange.
My second Brommie is a 2019 CHPT3, purchase as a special treat for my 70th birthday. I named him Graham, after the novelist Graham Greene who wrote “The Third Man “ , the name popped into my head when I was looking at the CHPT3 decal, I saw it as “ chap three” .

It's going to get bullied at school with a name like Blueberry.

Mine's called Gripper and it wants your lunch money.

Mine got Nicknamed Ben 10.

The reason behind that is because I had one the Brompton Hire bikes prior to getting mine. As they're purple and pink, one of the guys at work named it Dora the Explorer.

So when I got my green one, it also got given a name...
