    Race bike/ The Yeti
    DH bike/ the Marin/ white bike
    Saracen/ the hardtail/ spare bike
    The singlespeed (sometimes gets called Claude but this allowed as it is a Claude Butler)
    Road bike
    Time-trial bike

    Had a different Marin before the Yeti, this was also known as Race bike or sometimes the grey Marin

    GF is more imaginative and has
    Suzy (Specialized Stumpy)
    Bertha (Dawes HT of some sort)
    Bridget (Dawes road bike)
    Poo-bike (Halfords special hack bike)

    But then she even gives her cars names (Bella and Izzy so far, both Aygos)

    My cars have been
    The Tardis (Proton Persona, surprisingly large boot)
    The rust bucket (Peugeot 306)
    The Repmobile (Mondeo, which the GF called Percy for some reason)
    The Toyota (Toyota Corrolla)
    The Hyundai (Hyundai Trajet)

    I find that if ones names stuff ones gets attached to them and then upset when they break and have to be replaced, was rather sad to see Percy go.

    the santa cruz or the big bike
    the trek or the xc bike
    the roadbike

    pretty unimaginative – perhaps i need to get another so i can give it a better name? I'm thinking perhaps Fairy the Niner Air 9 Carbon might be good for the summer.

    It's fine for girls to name their bikes, but it's actually just been made illegal for blokes to name their bikes …or cars, or worst of all their motorbike.

    Each to their own 'n' all that but giving your bike a name is nearly as gay as having your name on it.

    We must be in a gay sport then, since almost all the top echelon have their names on their bikes.

    My name was put on mine by the GB Squad when they came to Beijing for the Olympics, doesn't make me gay does it?

    Mine are

    The red one
    The silver one

    Or the broken one – which can be interchangable
