My bike is so macho, it stinks. My wife named her "Vera". I never told her about the Vera from my past, so Vera was a recollection, a rememberance of a special relationship in my past. Talking to MOE, made me realize the significance of the name Vera, and how an old sweetheart was not the reason to name a bike.
I've decicded to rename my bike ROSIE for her brilliant color. "Ruby" is the name of STEWE's gorgeous red bike, so ROSIE it is. If my bike were a boring Harley Black color, I'd name "him" CLETUS.
