Given that a bicycle is an inanimate object (though a much loved one) I don't quite understand why people name their bikes....<br /><br />In any case when a manufacturer names a bike model, I appreciate a name that is descriptive of the type of bike it is or the spirit in which it is designed. The Breezer Uptown 8 is a great example since it is a stylish town bike. Prior to my husband purchasing one for me, I fantasized about pedaling on one to an urban farmers market where I would buy flowers and sip espresso.She Rides a Bikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10269615938898501712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7155728669167461207.post-70278232695063381472011-11-30T20:08:26.089-05:002011-11-30T20:08:26.089-05:00You know, I think every bike should be named BOBBI...You know, I think every bike should be named BOBBIE (the anti bot doohikie that it wants you to type a word or so, it says "word verification)Henryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16025720931464735383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7155728669167461207.post-72599256402527439152011-11-30T18:16:21.259-05:002011-11-30T18:16:21.259-05:00Three's Company names!!!
