Some people name their bikes. Some paint them crazy colors. Some have flowers, flags or stuffed animals. What have you done to make your bike unique? Talk About It Here

Unique Bike

My bike talks to me. It lets me know it misses me. We used to go on long rides. My bike wants to keep me healthy!!!

Unique bike

I'm all about being seen when I ride, so I have added strips of reflective tape on both sides, front and back so that car headlights are reflected back to the drivers at night. I've been told that people see me better in the daytime too because the tape also reflects the sun. An added bonus is that my bike is easily identifiable among others of the same make and colour. As well, I have changed my hand grips and pedals to more comfortable ones. I can pick my bike out of a line-up at a hundred paces!

Basket and Flowers

I have an old-fashioned white wicker basket on the front of my bike, and in it, I have a big collection of these obnoxious fake flowers. It makes me happy and the other people who see them smile too just because they are so funny.
