No name for the bike, but I used to think about them as a gift from the last girlfriend, as I tended to upgrade my bike after a breakup. My current ride was the end of my relationship with Roxie, the bike before was thanks to Barbara, and before that Lori, but the best bike was probably after my divorce. Maybe I should have called it, "William Wallace" or "Freedom!".

Only my boats had names, my sailboat was "Raven" and my duck boat TGFW or Thank God For Widgeon, as I kept hunting long after the great northern flocks of mallards had passed through.

Never give your bike or car a woman's name, it will always give you trouble after that.
