[Closed] Your STW name

because:
a) my heart [i]is[/i] made of metal*
b) I like cat power
c) I got bored of sofaboytt

*honest...

not sure I've got much to add to this debate

Last bit is my name, the first two was caused by having a c**p time at work which was having a big impact on my life. Work problem solved - STW name remains as a reminder not to let myself get into such a state

School nickname - simples

Me too 8)

PoisonSpider Cycles is a shop in Moab.

(S'pose it was just a surreptitious way of bragging about having been there - 😳 )

I've got a mate called Dave.

Mine's something to do with bikes, I think

Again, a school nickname. 😀

After Grossburger in Stircrazy, a very big man who sings well.

Because i'm ginger and the fact that we're going to take over the world!

I ride along. Something happens. I wake up with a crowd stood around me saying 'World Class Accident'

Peter O'Sullivan was already taken.

Ta for the link, TSY - that saves a bit of effort:

Known as "Adventure Racer" on another forum I frequent - it probably makes rather more sense on there (where various people were busy being rude about adventure racing when I registered, so it was deliberately provocative) than on here, so I shortened it.

I own a Landrover and 813 is part of my employee number

When I was born I was just a head. No arms, legs or body. They grew later.

So I was a [b]head first[/b].

guess what kind of bike i have......

Subliminal advertising

First name Ian, second name Barrington, which is too long for general use, so it got shortened to B. I was regularly called Mister B at Uni, but IanB is shorter and I think MrB had been taken. Not very imaginative really.

Because I get ridden by David Hasselhoff every day.

My name is toby. Most of my mates are too lazy for two whole sylables, so everyone ends up calling me Toab.

Could just as easily be Tobe I suppose...

Mine is the one on the left...

It relates to an old photograph of me. Buzz became my nickname.

[url= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_%28honorific%29 ]Don is an honorific term in Spain.[/url], the rest is kinda obvious, isn't it?

Got fed up trying to choose an original name and finding all the original ones had been taken. 😐

Thought to myself 'duntmatter, does it?', et voila.

I ride to work a lot of the time so work mates began calling me Sturmey Archer that was 20+ years ago and the name just stuck. Also the first real bit of bike maintenance after fitting cow horns was to rebuild a SA 3 speed hub after jumping my bike in to the canal and all the workings in the hub went rusty.

mine's more to do with little racing cars....... and less to do with my public perception

it made sense during the 2secs of though i gave it

I thought TandemJeremy was called that because he is bipolar?

Lolz

Just imagine if there were two of me

I like boiled eggs.

cos in my primary school class in the 70's there were 5 boys called Stephen/Steve out of 15... Stephen Ormerod, Steve Teare, etcetc, and in my christian phase in my teens/20's there were a few more so Stevio StevieB Stevie T, and on. Stuck, and better than "Fishing Rod"/"Haemorrhoid (sic)"/Step Hen. At work after 25 years i'm "Ombi" cos a former colleague with a cleft palate couldn't say Ormerod...

Also float around as Stevio1967 elsewhere

I got a real pretty mouth.

Well, this has been interesting finding out who came back under a different name. 🙂

Born in '76 and I think geckos are cool.

Not I

Was MrOvershoot before & still am!

Its a name from my days rallying, I used to have a habit of being a bit late on the brakes and overshot more than a few junctions/turns to the point where I destroyed a farmers gate in Ulster and when the stewards were asked who did it they pointed to my car and said "Oh that will be Mr Overshoot over there"
& yes I did pay for the gate and the farmer was very nice about it to the point of sending me a Christmas card 🙂

It's my name.

My name is Andy and I'm into electronic music (making and listening) using old 'analogue' kit.. Got known for buying and selling, someone gave me the nickname, used it on another forum and it kinda stuck

[b]will[/b] is my first name, [b]e[/b] is the initial of my second name and [b]j[/b] is the initial of my surname. Was also a nickname at school.

I ride a road bike a and my name is Tom.

Sorry mine STW name is boreing and took all of 2 secs to think up.

So much magic being shattered in this thread. I like to make up my own reasons for your names. It's beautiful that way.

I came back under a different name once - for a while I was Big Bike Bash - this was purely because if I mentioned a particular bike event in the New Forest in August the thread got pulled.

I think I was NoSpokes when I very first joined but then one of my customers recognised my injuries and complained that I spent too much time on here or out on my bike when I was charging him for my time and was supposed to be working from home.

I played a few jazz-influenced tunes at a party. For reasons unknown I was already called Pimp; consequently Pimp - Master of the Jazz was born.
