Talk to "Big Boy" every ride, and every time I pass him in the garage.
Course I talk to no so big boy too, but he dont say much, mostly looks at the floor. At least I can still ride Big Boy.

You bet....sometimes it's to apologize for the stupid things I do.....ie fuss at her for not starting....then realize I accidentally hit the kill switch. :-[

Guilty as charged!!! http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif I typically have a 3-way conversation by osmosis. No words, just thought processes that we share between the THREE of us: me, Gollum and Smegol... ::)

Usually plays out something like this:

Me: (walk into garage, stare at bike)... "Shall we ride"?
Gollum: "Yes, Precious wants to go for ride; wants to ride far and fasssssst"...
Smegol, quickly: "No, No. We wants to cruise slow and steady. Lets everyone else see what cruisin's all about, we do...Smegol good."

OK, so maybe I have some "issues" to work out... http://s2.images.proboards.com/shocked.gif

Well, now that you all admit it, I guess I do talk to her, and she talks back to me when we ride!

Yup, when I go in the shed to get the food to feed the birds I pat it on the top of the backrest and say " it's getting closer to spring, won't be long now"
Of course I been saying that for a month now, but you have to keep the nomads interest peaked http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

No, I don't talk to my bike, but once I tried to communicate telepathically, and I ended up bending the handlebars through telekinesis instead. I'm available for birthday parties and bar mitzvahs, too.

A man needs someone to talk to that can carry on an intelligent conversation ;) Believe me, in my line of work, I don't get the opportunity to talk to many intelligent people. It's refreshing to talk to my bike.
Ride safe,
Dano

Not yet. I haven't had the chance to get to know mine yet. Just siting there outside under the Cycle Shed. She's probably mad at me...

It's the only female that will talk to him. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

All right, I talk to mine too. There, I admitted it. At least I'll be at the funny farm with all of you guys, especially Matt and his 5 voices.

You have a point Dxdixie, my bike's about the only female that will listen, although my wife does listen - - - then she laughs! (what does that mean?)
