    I can't say I've ever named my bikes or attributed a gender to them but I had to take the ST into Boyles the other day due to a slow leak in the front tyre. When I was picking it up, John was looking for my name on the key board and I had to point out it was on the hook named 'Enterprise'!!

    I queried "WTF is that all about"? and he laughed, stuck his hands out and said "I dunno but it is a pretty big bird".........I guess my bike has now been dubbed with a name which reflects it's presence, but it still isn't gendered.

    Only question now is, should I be Kirk, Piquard, Janeway or Archer? Hmmmm...dunno.....having 7of9 work under me would be OK though.

    Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead
    Do not walk ahead as I may not follow.
    Do not walk beside me as the path is narrow
    In fact FU*K off and leave me alone

    Just came back from a ride with Harley riders. Different style altogether from where and how I ride.
    They certainly have less chance of collecting speeding tickets.
    Through the twisties I could see just how good my bike is. How easy it is to ride and how quiet. I'm pretty sure I don't want a Harley.
    Those Honda Pan Europeans really are very good.

    I wasamazed at the fuel economy of the Harley. 1600cc but very frugal. Probably didn't get it over 3000rpm though so I guess it is to be expected.

    It was a great day for a ride today. We had fun....

    Well I used to think my Guzzi V11 Sport is very manly bike, but Mrs Nudie rides it like it's a 250, so bang goes that theory !!

    My bike is called Blossom.

    On the open road it does about 6 litres per 100km. 6.5 if I am 2 up with gear.

    My first CB250 Hornet is known as the "little ol'hornet" and is a guy, next in line is my RZ250 "Daisy" who is a dirty girl since she wants to be ridden harder and faster all the time.

    Then her little sister "Pippi" came from down the line to the big smoke and is wondering where the other A100 Suzukis are playing!

    Finally, big bro came to town, the CB900F "Big Ol'Hornet" and his little bro is sure glad hes come to take up some of the riding hours and milage!

    Also at the back somewhere are my two little mini-motos called "Chapi" and "Chapo"

    When I be riding, I don't have a name picked out, it just suddenly pops into my mind when I'm out and about! I thought the Big Ol'Hornet would be a big sister, but the "vibe" I got off it was a guy!

    And ayup, will be doing the same method of naming when I get my other rides!
    "I like to ride anyplace, anywhere, any time, any way!"

    My Madison is also very girly.
    She is certainly a female, as am I, and just about all of the bikes I have ridden except maybe the DR250 we have just done up, which doesn't have a name yet but I think might be a man.
