    If my name was Gordon would this count as having “my name on my bike”? Just a thought…keeping it on topic like 🙂

    yes it is. Check the dictionary.

    Ohhh, just makes me cringe 😐

    Granted ‘smell_it’ is never going to look cool, but even more dashing sounding names, noooo, just like private number plates. Do those that have them also wear t-shirts with their names on? (forum or real)

    It’s not for me, I find it odd. Last time I had any possessions with my name on I was on Cub Camp.

    I’ve occasionally thought about it, but decided it is indeed like personalised plates, beyond cheesy.

    I got MrsF custom headset caps, but that was a bit different as it was to mark a specific achievement, her first 24 hour solo, not just to have her name on the bike.

    Why would you write “Arkala” on your posessions?

    two bearings and a metal tube. How on earth could ‘his fruitiness’ manage to screw that up?

    I have some stuff (towels, clothes I wear for painting) that still have name tapes from when I was at boarding school. I left over 15 years ago. 🙁

    I guess you all just want to look ‘factory’ on the trails. Wowing the general public with your extraordinary bike handling prowess, and when they catch a glimpse of the brilliant pseudonym they will truly be in awe of you.

    I don’t have my name on my bike but the colour scheme results in people recognising me easily…

    …I can probably be spotted from space.

    reminds me of a letter in viz – went something like-

    “why oh why spend thousands of pounds getting a personalised number plate? it’s much cheaper to change your name my deed-poll just as i did.

    Yours Sincerly X426 J2Y”

    easy!

    it’s for bedwetters unless you are a team rider and need to recognise your bike amoungst the other team bikes.
    if you have a personalised plate alluding to a bike name but don’t own the company or race for them you probably shite the bed too.

    The thought that one day I might open a gift containing a bike part, alongside the gleeful shout ‘and look its got your name on it!’ makes me feel quite anxious.

    ‘Captain Bastard’???!?

    Cool!

    There’s a Scottish bloke on here; has his name on his bike- ‘Onion’.
