'π' I have a Fuji Nevada. 'π' It has served me well over the years trhough thick and thin. My friends and I have a rule, that if you do a major stunt or get into a major wipeout, then your bike earns the right to have a name. Thus my bike earned the name, Fujimonster. Have you named your bike?
(You don't need to have crashed or anything, I just want to know).

Yup, her name is Duchess. She's too lady-like to crash although I have noticed that the [censored] likes to flop over whenever a good looking bike mechanic comes near her.

...Lenore (Trek 5200)
Shapely, refined, composed, she's all three a much better cyclist than I'll ever be!
She's never quite certain when she's fully controlled, and calmness the key, to continue to roll
but though I can fake, when control's being sought, She knows in an instant, the moment I'm not...
Yup,, named mine "Mario". Its a wierd name for a mountain bike but Mario is my favorite road cyclist and I actually have a selle italia Mario seat (the one with flames and a devil on it). It gets some wierd looks but I like it. My friend has a Fat City he calls "Gigi".
Do you mean have we named our rides as our bikes or women....
When I repainted my bike, on the cross tube I had my name put on using graphx. But the name of my bike is Nostromo. Sometimes I feel like an alien being towed by my bike....

I decided to call my bike Sirius. A kind of a play on words. It's Specialized Sirrus Pro - a serrious bike, and after Sirus Black in the Harry Potter books. As you can see it's very black. Not only that it's a great bike. No I haven't crashed it!
nice, i hope it doens't come to the same untimely demise as sirius does. I just got word that the kid with the battling beatrice, he's kinda our leader guy thing, who we all follow, sad that i'm a follower and not a leader, luckily he's going to a different school now, so this is my chance... -OFF TOPIC- anyhow, he recently told me that my bikes original name was [censored], can you tell he's extreme/outgoing? anyhow i like fujimonster more.
My current ride is named Axel Rhodes. Axel, after the greatest cycle racer in the history of the sport, Eddie Merckx's son. Rhodes is a compromise. My daughter said it should be "Rose" after the rock singer, but I didn't really like that. I said I usually ride it on the road, so Rhodes it is.
My next bike is already named. Before I settled on the specific bike, it was tentatively called Axel Rhodes, Jr. But, when I decided on a 2004 Cannondale R1000 in the "speed yellow" color., my daughter said it looked like a "Slash McGurk." A tough, no-nonsense Irishman unafraid to take on the hardest climbs and the hairiest descents!

Memph. Explain graphx to me, please. I'm just about to put a new livery on my steed, and I was thinking along the terms of my name on the top tube. That would be very "racey" I think, and would force me to go faster so I wouldn't look like a fool on a Pro bike.
Training bike is an orange lemond..........The orange whip Race bike Eddie Merckx team sc..............Fast Eddie Mountain bike Klein Mantra race..............The fat [censored] Commute / shopping bike........................The car ( because it IS my car )
