Help me name my undecaled/unbadged orange bike.
I picked up a generic Mercier orange track frame from bikeisland and was thinking of putting a custom decal on it. Open to ideas like "The Dreamcycle" or any orange themed name. Maybe a jack-o-lantern on the headtube? LOL
Fire away!

Why would you name your bike? If you call its name, will it come to you? No.

Every bike needs a name, like a boat or a car does. What role does the color orange play in your life (aside from the bike)?

Nope. More of a dedication. Jane is a metaphor in that book. Also, my whole teams names their bikes so it's normal. I'm also probably half your age or more than that.

Put a black 01 on each side and you have the GENERAL LEE! Just be sure to get a horn that plays Dixie.
