Do you give your bikes 'pet' names?
« on: April 13, 2012, 10:56 PM »
Yes, it might sound a bit 'gay', but hear me out. It wasn't my idea...

When I was thinking on colours for my new build, I contacted a mate who's a bmxer & an ace graphic artist & asked him for colour ideas.

He replied: "Think of what you're going to call her 1st, then the colours will come easily".

Haven't met her yet, so dunno what I'll call her...

Is this normal? Does anyone else have names for their bikes?  ;)

no

but I have named some of my cars

when I was 20 I had a mini called Floyd (guess what colour he was  :D)
and I had 2 golfs called rolf, rolf senior was a mk2 driver and rolf junior was a mk4 GTI

never named any of my company cars though as they had no soul

in 1992 my mk1 holmes was given the nickname "the long boat"

due to other frames of the time having 20" or less top tubes and the holmes having a 21" and a longer rear end
