'Quick Sherry Redberry'. Quick is obvious, Sherry is my wife, the bike is red, berry is an inside joke.
My black F150 is Mickey and her black Escape is Minnie becuase we got those foam antenna balls at Disney World once.
BTW, something wierd about the radio antenna's on Escapes. We had one stolen, and found another one attached with one thread and scratches in the paint where the *(&^*& used a tool to get it lose. Someone must have scared them away. At $78 a pop, we take it off and put it in inside the car when we park in a public place. A big black market in Ford Escape antennas???

The "Blue Streak." 
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

I generally don't name mechanical things until the day they don't start. On that day, they are usually all named the same, and it isn't printable here. The one exception has been the Speedie, which is called J-Lo - Simply because of the beautifly contoured mud guard. Should the day come when J-Lo doesn't start, she'll be changing her name...
