That is an impressive length of time to have the same bike...although as I'm typing this I realize the bike I have (which is in the shed since I don't have a place to store it where it would actually be easy to get to and ride) is about 20 years old! So, I guess it's only impressive if it's actually been used a lot, which means you've kept good care of it!

Good for you biking everywhere! Love the name.
 
My first car was a Peugeot 306 and I named it "Bonhomme" (maybe guy in English).
Today, I have a Toyota Corolla Break and I don't give it a name except whe it decides to slow down on her own ; I hate that and I name it "Tas de boue" (I hope "mud pile" makes sense)
 
I have never named my car! I've thought about it but never came up with anything I liked. My son named his car Sasha and always calls her by her name lol
 
I haven't ever named a car (that I can remember). I even had a hard time knowing what to call my vehicle because it's kinda a small SUV, but I don't wanted to say that, so I do still call it "my car" :giggle I used to have a van, so I said "my van". Lol. I like to over think things I guess. Ha!

I’m surprised your son named his car even though you don’t!

DH calls the white car my car but I don’t like to claim it as my own so I still call it the white one. Maybe someday I will think of a name that actually sticks. We have backyard kitties and I can one of those the white one too lol
 
My son has a silver Ford Focus hatchback and he got it about the time of that incident with the silver back gorilla and the young child at the Cincinnati Zoo. He named his car Harambe in honor of that gorilla.

Animals are a great source to pull names from, especially zoo animals because they all have been named already.
 
In college my roommate had a big green monstrosity that we called "Pregnant Green Frog". Other than that, I don't name our cars anything other than their model. Hence, currently we have Tucson and Ridgeline. The ultimate in unoriginal!:giggle

Pregnant Green Frog lol that's hilarious!
 
I have a bright blue Honda Civic ... my granddaughter named it "Wilbur." No clue why.

As a teen we had an old second-hand white work van (driver and passenger seats only). On one of the inside side panels some one had written "minified" so the van became known as the Minified. :)

That’s fun your granddaughter named your car! I’ll have to ask my kids what they would name mine.

Minified is clever!
