    So, do people have names for their bike(s)? Other than the brand/ model name, obviously.

    We call our trike 'Stephanie' after Stephanie in Lazytown. If you've no idea what I'm talking about, you should be fitter than you are, you've the time! ;)

    So, any names of endearment and why?

    DFD.

    My mates christened my road bike Rebecca and it's stuck, sounds funny though when they're talking about riding Rebecca for six hours. They were jealous that I wasn't going on the lash with them and I prefered to go cycling. Also I'm terrible with the ladies so my excuse was, at least on the bike I'm guaranteed the ride :D I don't have a name yet for my mountain bike.

    My Boardman was called a lot of things last Sunday, none of them nice.
    I've never actually named any of my bikes, might just come up with some:D

    My Ridley is called Ciara after my cousin, who I lost tragically some years ago.

    Is it because you have painted it pink? Or is it because it is illegal to ride?
