"Big Yellow" - Commuter, Unknown Mfg
"Epic" - Road, Specialized
"Trek" - Mountain, Fuel 90

My favorite (no secret around here! ;) ) is my 4500, I call it "The Hummer" :D

'my bike'

My commuter is called the Urban Assault Vehicle. The roadie does not have a name as yet.

and my youngest (he's 6) has a sweet ride called "Major Damage" which is awesome.

I call mine "THE CLUNKER" .

My roadie is called "the beast" when compared to my mtb or tourer

I call my favorite road bike, " the pig"

"The Kona",
"The Cannondale",
"The Trek", and
"The Old Trek".

About naming vehicles, long ago my son thought VW made a model called "The Rattletrap". Seems I gave the old bucket a defacto name without ever thinking much about it.

SheRA - Raleigh
Yellow Hornet - Mercier
**** - Tierra Razzo (peformancebike house brand)
Premie - Schwin Premis
Black Sheep - All black/carbon fiber wrapped Miyata
TBD - All white w/honey brooks saddle Parmaount
TBD - Dawes Super Galaxy tourer
TBD - Fuji World Tourer red/white - Red Baron ? Fugley?

Yellow Hornet, Premie, and **** have found new owners.

My commuting bike is named Miss Gulch (the nasty neighbor from the Wizard of Oz).

I call my road bike "Marie Therese Charlotte." She was queen of France for 20 minutes. And my other, singlespeed commuter is called "Babette," staying w/ the French theme as she's an old Peugeot Course. I like to give the female names because I don't like to ride guys.

I don't name my bikes. I don't think there is anything wrong with doing it, I just don't care to. Well maybe if something breaks on the bike I might curse at it and call it a piece of ****.

They change often but lately, they have been:
"Pink and black" for the Trek 7.2 FX, a.k.a. "the Trek"
"my Giant" for the late Giant Cypress, a.k.a. "the red one"
"green bike" for the olive green 1972 Raleigh Record beer hauler

Not very creative, but descriptive enough.

My custom-built tourer didn't have a name on the frame. Over several beers a friend and I named it
"Kyoto Accord"

No one seems to get the joke.

When I custom built up a tandem from a Norco frame for my wife for our twenty-fifth anniversary, we called it
"Venticinque"

She's Italian. No one seemed to get it

My commuter bike is actually a Giant, but I've covered up the name with tape. Everyone asks
"What's the name of your bike?"

I need a snappy comeback for that one.

I tried, at one point, to name my bicycles. But I kept reverting back to something like the above. Back when I had two bikes, I had the blue bike and the white bike. Then the white bike was crippled and I had to replace the frame with a blue frame; so then it was the commuter and the Univega. Now it's:

The Commuter
The Fixie
The Univega (though it might just become "The Rain Bike", now that the Trek is around)
The Trek

Just say "It's name is _______" (mouth open with no sound coming out).

Flat black 86 cannodale road bike -- "El Rad" --made from a reconfigureed Caddillac El dorado name bage

Hillary.

Bike names
 

Fast commuter in CT (Specialized Allez Elite) is "The bike". 2nd in Chicago (Old Schwinn Traveler) is called "The Tank".

"Jackie Brown" 07 Novara Randonee (she's got a brown frame, has a little junk in her trunk, and she's sexy)

no names yet for my 88 Nishiki Ariel (tows the Burley trailer) or 91 Raleigh Olympian (old road bike, now SS)

Bruce (Gordon)

When it's jumping gears while I'm putting out big watts uphill, it's a ****ing Piece of ****, even though I know it's my hack adjustment causing it :o

I tell my friends it's my beater for grins, since I am fortunate enough to have a better bike for special occasions.

Wally, Dennis, Everest and the Dragon.
