I call mine "my bike". My wife calls it "your bike".

That seems to work pretty well for me. I'd never give any of my bikes or cars a name.

But hey, you paid for it, you can call it anything you want.

Babe.........like the blue ox from Paul Bunyan. It is heavy as hell to push so I named it accordingly.

I don't use it regularly, but when I got my bike, my then 8 y.o. son was into "The Lion King" and named the bike Pumba. Like the farting wart HOG in the movie.

When I bought my bike I referred to it as a she. The salesman corrected me saying it was a he. Named the bike BB aka Big Boy, Black Beauty, Bad Boy, etc...

For those who remember Walter Cronkite, the CBS news anchor a few years ago. He had a yacht called "On assignment". When ever he had a fill in to do the news, they would say "Walt is on assignment" and that way they would be telling the truth. This is why sometimes I call mine "At Work"
