My pink late 80's Peugeot is named Esther Splett, after a friend of my girlfriend. She'll be a dream once she's fixed.
I haven't found anything I like for my Giant Boulder, but Fred seems to fit.
I haven't started restoring my lime green 70's SuperCycle but it will be Yves once I get around to it.

My, sadly recently departed, fixie was called Picard. Not because I'm a Star Trek fan but the guy I inherited it from looked like him and that was his nickname. He was my climbing partner and I was kinda bummed that he emigrated to Oz so it was kind of a homage to him....
