I've never named bikes or cars. But one day I told the wife if I had to name my Limited I'd call it "Doc" sine I refer to my rides as wind therapy.

But I mostly call it the bike.

So that explains the weather we've been having! I think I've been out once or twice this year and not hit rain. Even a couple of weekends ago, full sun and 80, on my way to Chautauqua Lake and ride under the only cloud in the region and get dumped on. Damn rain!

I was thinking of starting to call mine Black Cloud.

My first bike (02 Road King Classic) was named J-Lo. She was a little older, had a big ol' *** and was still sexy as hell. My new Street Glide is named Maxine.



She's got more going on up front and she's a little fast.
