Hiya Everyone,
Just wanted to introduce my newest addition to the Family ....  Unfortunately, I have yet to give her a name, but do have a few possible considerations already .... 
I am partial to Sweet Cadillac at the moment .... 
andy  Peace !!!

Hey!! Nice wheels! Thought you might have gone CX this tme around. First I have heard of Cadillac too.
Too bad it wasn't pink.... as in Pink Cadillac 
But here are my loose thoughts of the moment:
Red
Red Scorpion
Red Thunder (my CX is aptly named Blue Thunder while Black Razor does standby work)
Red Hawk
Red Lightning
Red Light

Thanks Andre,
Been thinking about CX, but nothing to be found right now in the Ottawa area ...  And, besides, I think I am too chicken to go down those muddy trails, and crashing into rocks, trees, etc...  ... in particular, just coming back from my achilles injuries ..
Perhaps, after my Canadian Half DU, in the Fall, .. we'll see... This is my favorite XC bike, thus far: 
andy Peace !!!!

Hey Bman,
Yeah, I had my physiotherapy appointment scheduled yesterday ... and was not prepared to be cycling with 34C and 42C humidex last night ... especially, when I had my 5:00am run this morning to look forward to ...
Actually, ended up drooling and pampering my new honey and added a bike computer/cadence monitor, bell and, of course, aerobars on her for looks ...
She is my first new born as all my others have been adopted .... So, probably gonna be a lot of growing pains, eh!!! Just hope my B2 Bomber does not get too jealous of her new sibbling, however ...
With both my Guru Flite and Softride having found new homes earlier this summer, she was getting lonely ....
andy Peace !!! |

I was going to vote Big Red, but that was the name of my new MTB that was stolen , so I wouldn't want to jinx your new ride. Besides, I had the same anxiety over my other bike being jealous. I'm convinced that my Cannondale (nickname: The Bee) had something to do with Big Red's disappearance. I think she took a hit out on her.

How about "Fire Storm"? "Dragon's Breath"?
Thanks for the bike porn, Andy

Congrats Andy,
looks like a real beauty. It's so funny, when I bought my bike several months ago, I was even nervous on my hybrid. Now, I look longingly at your new addition (is that a sin?). It's amazing how easily we got sucked in. Oh well, maybe I can figure out how to stretch out better on my own bike before needing to upgrade to a roadie.

I'm kinda liking Dragon's Breath, although it's not on the poll....
Personally I'd steer clear of anything Caddilac related... DH had one that was an utter lemon.. we referred to it lovingly as the SamSquadilac!
As I am impatiently waiting for the call that my new "baby" has been delivered & awaiting for mommy to pick "it" up, I was thinking about a name - I thought I was weird (OK - not like I've NEVER heard that before ) wanting to name it (no gender as of yet...) I guess I'm really normal, I really am!

Thanks Tracy,
And, yes, I am slightly leaning over to "Fire Storm" at the moment ... as that Cadillac theme, as you suggested, may be way too overused ... So, keep it coming, everyone !!!  and, thanks, as well for your suggestions and input, thus far....
You are quite correct, as well, every sweet ride needs a name and it's personality has a direct correlation on how he/she will be bonded too, just if it were you own child ... Speaking of which, this waiting feeling must be worse than labour, eh!!!! It could be arriving any day now ... Better have your email and voice message linked to your cell phone/pager/blackberry, just in case you get that "call" ...
I am sure you will be smitten the day he/she arrives ... I guess you should've gotten an ultrasound to determine its *****, eh!!! That way his/her new room will be all ready the day he/she arrives ...
Take care and enjoy your new addition, as well  ... andy Peace !!!! |

What a pretty baby. Was it born with Japanese or Italian body parts? I don't know much about the Cadillac line.
My babys always sleep in my bedroom when I bring them home for the first night, how about yours?
