Well that depends, how do you feel about your bike?

Personally, I love mine.  I like it all clean and shiny - and I love it caked with mud (MTB obviously) - but I always clean her off and make sure her chain is nice and clean and lubed.  She sleeps INSIDE with us - but no, not on the bed.

;D

Well, I'm not sure how guys are with their bikes.

But, I know I could never sell it, never let anyone borrow it, and I have this strange desire to keep buying new things for it.  I wipe it down fairly often.  I would never store it outside, even in the garage.

And, when I ride past other people, I think "My bike is cooler than yours!"  Even if they have some tricked out LiteSpeed or something.  Usually when I see someone with a tricked out bike like that just riding around the lake, they are someone with way too much money on their hands...with a kick a.ss bike that they can't ride for more than a 14mph average (and I am passing them).

I will never get rid of my bike, unless I begin to outperform my equipment.  Meaning, I will go and get a more aero dynamic, lighter bike, with all the bells and whistles, when I am so good, even the seconds accumalated from draft will make a difference.  Right now, that is not an issue and will not be for several years.

Just to let yuo all know, I bought a new bike a few months ago, but I couldn't bare to part with my old one.  I still use it as a shopping bike now, even though it's just about stuffed.  At least a thief wouldn't get very far on it!  ;D

I clean my bike 'til it's gleaming.  I love my bike and it loves me.  My bike is definitely an 'it', not a he nor a she but an 'it' and it is the best. 8)

I'm of a different view.  My road bike is definately a "she" coz, she's gorgeous with curvaceous lines and lovely long legs.

My MTB is a fella, with more width, thicker, stronger but definately shorter legs, and loves to play in the dirt.

;D ;D ;D 8)
