Streaky (Supergirl's Super-cat)

I think you should name the bike Stevie, after this friend of mine who used to be the most INSANE bike messenger in the world. He was also a carnie at coney island for a while, and also worked on wall street for a while -- trading stocks! I think he lives in new orleans now. He didn't ever go by Stevie, but I see you're going for a female name...

This name means versatility, fearlessness and a thick Jersey accent. What more could you want in a bike?

And besides, when do you want to have lunch? You've got to refuel sometime.

Fraction's Filly?

And no, he didn't pay me to say that. Yet.

That pic gets us dangerously close to butt cleavage. You tease!

How about Unity Mitford?

It's a scary bike, so the name of a Nazi sympathizer seems appropriate, but a grandmotherly name might help you feel tougher in comparison.

BTW, Hi. I'm Jim.

pansy, or iris, or something like that. Maybe a cute blue & yellow bird, or tropical fish. And then to capture the threat factor, prefix it with 'doom', 'thrash', or some intimidating word from the triathlete lexicon.

doom pansy.

I was discounting 'Havoc', as it's X-Men, but then again... it's Blue & Yellow, and the implication fits...

The Road Ranger.

-or-

The Road Rager.

(Whichever is most appropriate at any given moment.)

Ooh, no, this is it:
Sharkbait.

What about something that has to do with your triathlon? Like Endurance Sue or Triathlon Sue? Then she could be E-Sue or T-Sue for short. TNT Sue also sounds good.

You could go with something that reminds you of the pain its caused you, like Bruiser, or Skidmark. Or maybe The Ditch Witch. Just kidding...my creative juices have run dry at the moment.

Wasn't the monkey on Superfriend's Blue with a blue and yellow suit? Gleek? Or was the outfit purple...I can't remember.

You have made me weep bitter tears of thrift.

Santiago. Say it with me: sahn-tee-AAH-go. Imagine Ricardo Montalban calling it out.

I've always called things that scare me "kitten". Especially large men who are trying to look especially menacing.

blue + yellow = swedish flag

thus he/she must be named for a swede! if only i could rattle off a list of small scary swedes...

brainstorming: Borg. (tennis cutey or star trek superfreaks), Sonja (henje, the small ice skater); Olaf (for Olaf Palme); ABBA; Marcus (for Marcus Samuelson, the brilliant chef from Acquavit).

So sleepy. gnight.

I think I'm going with "Marcus Daisy."
