Just curious. I know people name their cars and such. I just got a new frame and I love it so much already that I feel a name may be in order 
Does anyone name their bikes?

I have not named mine, but I do call it a few things from time to time...
nope. never have.
my roommate does.
i just call mine "bike"
i just call mine "bike"
I sometimes refer to mine as "my broken POS." I don't have a real name for it though, no.
I tend to just call it by its given name. Though with the new King Kikapu, I may have to change it to Queen

My bikes already had the names on them. Demo 8, Hollowpoint MTX and Chameleon.....D
personally i don't think that a name is appropriate until the entire bike is complete and a celebratory first ride has been performed.bluebug32 said:Just curious. I know people name their cars and such. I just got a new frame and I love it so much already that I feel a name may be in order

Are the people who name their bikes the same people who come up with clever names their private parts?
Just wondering. I always thought that was kind of weird.
