Explain your Avatar and Screen name!

[Barto]

Been kicking around the site a few years now and enjoying the crap out of it - so cool! My last name is Bartholomew and Barto is just a derivative of our Family Nic name "BART". I'm a Jr and my Grandmother even called my Dad Bart - so since then, it just happens..people call us Bartholomew's BART. My daughters, my wife, brothers etc. etc. We don't allow anyone to be called Bart at family events.

My avatar is a bike frame I lusted over when I first got into the hobby and Gordy was nice enough to not only sell me a bike but he even thru in the bars...Love this bike and really appreciate Gordy for working with me!!

Oh, and dump these color blocks...get a cool avatar so we can associate you with something other than these color blocks.

Hey, @fordmike65, I so want to hear what your newest Avatar is all about - you keep it pretty interesting (can't wait to see what's next)!!! oh, and lol!!!

 

[Frank and Pam Skid Kings]

KInda self explanatory. I'm Frank and wife is Pam. Who by the way is not only supportive to me with the hobby, but got me started in it ! She wanted a single speed bike to ride. Went to typical stores looking and decided she needed something old and cool instead of new. That's who we are. Got a old JC higgins middleweight. Then I had to have a bike and got a 78 Heavy Duty with stingray seat and apes. Then this 52 Huffy dial a ride came up and she HAD to have it. Then we joined the Skid Kings VBC from Tacoma and the rest is history.

 

[Jay81]

Mine's not too creative, Jay is a nickname that my wife and friends call me and 81 is the year I was born. I've changed my avatar several times, but my current avatar is a postcard I bought from ebay. It has some writing on it which appears to be Dutch, and I used google translator to figure out what it said:
"anyone who can still enjoy it, calls himself a happy man"

 

[oldfart36]

The Avatar: have collected Munsters stuff for years. "Oldfart36": Nick name that my son spit out years back when I had my 36 Chevy hot rod pickup.

 

[Sven]

The name Sven came from people at work calling me that , due to my Swedish Ancestry ( Actually the wife and I did the Ancestry.com thing...I'm 39% German , 38% Scandinavian )
The Avitar was just unique , nothing astounding

 

[TieDye]

TieDye is my nickname in the motorcycle scene, and I am a Chaplain, so I am called Chaplain Tie Dye. I love bright colors, and I grew up in the 60's when tie dye and elephant bells ruled. Hence, the tie dye avatar.

 

[Hobo Bill]

just yellow unions....they kinda go with alot of foods.....then theirs eatin' a raw union while ridin' a bicycle down lombard in frisco....eh!

I saw that gif posted somewhere a couple weeks ago & was a little weirded out by it. Thought I'd weird you guys out too

 

[2jakes]

Working for TV news for many years, not much freaks me out anymore.
When I get off work, I relax by going at a slow peaceful pace by myself.
That explains the avatar.
My screen name is paying homage to a dog that was my best friend
when I was 5.
