Default What is your bike's nickname?.......


I'm one of those weird people who likes to nickname inanimate objects that I'm fond of or that I use often.
For instance,... my car has a nickname, (Scooby II)...my computer has a nickname, (Isis)... my vacuum cleaner has a nickname, (Wilson)...and,....even my trusty roll-a-way room air conditioner has a nickname. (R2-D2). I have not named the rest of the appliances (yet) but I suppose it's always possible.

ANYWAY.................seriously...........SO, my POINT of this thread:
....................what's everybody's BIKE named?

My new Sporty just got her nickname today - "Spooky".
For those who know me, that sounds perfectly appropriate.


Scooter~

"The Stealth" when it is clean, "The Piglett" when it is not.
