Bike "Nick names" - 07-20-2008, 02:29 PM

Does anyone have a "Nickname" for their bikes?
My 74 CT is nicknamed "Copper" and the 71 "H" is
nicknamed "Dexter"

We haven't named the bikes, . . . yet, . . . but our cars have had names in the past, . . . like the purple Plymouth named "Moby" (as in Moby Grape, . . . if you remember that you're old as dirt.) My kids took to calling my VW rabbit pick-up "Bunny" which has evolved into just "Bun". The Chevy Malibu got named "Barbie" (I'm sure you can figure out where that came from) and #1 daughter's VW Golf was "Bogey." And last, but not least was the Ford Contour. The kids said it was a boring old beater, and it became "Bob." (With apologies to anyone named Bob. It was just an acronym, honest!)

Another famous acronym "GALY" ... Great American Land Yacht applicable to cars of the Moby Grape era

Tons of nicknames. There's Golden Boy, True Blue, Beamer, MG (mighty green), Pearl, and Crap Tank (name given by a previous owner who had it decaled on), to name but a few.
