My Dawes 2007 Galaxy is called 'Shinto' after the donkey in this book http://www.amazon.co.uk/Spanish-Steps-Tim-Moore/dp/0099471949 which I have never read but carry on my tours.

My Binachi 2008 Via nirone c2c alu carb has just been named 'Celeste'...because I always fancied riding a fast bird called celeste...erm.. I mean after the colour.

Betty, Dawes Horizon (because she's blue).
Poppy, Pearson Audax (because she's red and has a big letter P on her head tube).

I've only ever named one bike. Marvin the Marin. The rest are just referred to by their make.

Are you having a grumpy moment. Go on you can tell us, we won't tell anyone else.

I have plenty of Campag. And plenty of soul (no comments about As-soul )

And plenty enough sense to know only lentil knitters name their bikes

Nothing wrong with lentils... a good source of protein. Well, apart from puy lentils which look like dog sick.

Obviously not 'brain food' if you name your bike

Damn, you ruined my next joke

I can knit lentils whilst simultaneously cracking walnuts between my thighs.
