Almost self explanatory (if you know me and what I do) ....
I ride a Spyder and I raise cows .... so, Spyder_Cowgirl
My other half is Spydercowboy on this forum and hogcowboy on several others. I believe he has also now started used injuncowboy after his Christmas gift (a 2016 Indian Roadmaster in Blue Diamond with artwork and pin striping).
I like the stories too ....Ann
Ann,

When I saw my GS, It reminded me of Darth Vader..And I am also a fan..

Mrs. Vader and me And getting my neighbors daughter on the bus this past Halloween
My first college room mate, who always considered me the deep well of information regarding anything with 2 wheels, sarcastically named me "Motoswami"
That was years ago, but the name stuck.
My real name is Pete, which is what I normally go by.
Mine came from a fellow I used to work with. He put it all together.
Steve came from a caller into a radio talk show. His name of course was Steven & he sounded just like me.
There is a missing letter in there too. J was put in for my real first name.
La is for an incident I almost had with a truck from Canada. He almost hit my car.
And Oyster came from a time I was sick with a cold & hocking luggies outside the building where we worked.
Steven J. LaOyster was shorten to SteveLaoyster for on here.:roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:
In the 50s strong prescription eyeglasses were
Really thick, the bikers that came into
The gas station I worked at said my glasses
Were so thick they looked like sealedbeam
Headlights. From then on it was "sealbeam"
Sometimes shortened to"beam"
It's a nickname that I picked up in racing over 30 years ago, first in flagging and communications (F&C) and later as a starter. It was also the name of a cartoon I did for three racing magazines in the '90s.
It's the only online name I've ever used.
I tried to think of something unique to where i live in the Central Valley of California. In Tulare County, we have more cows than people. There are two things this time of year that are really impressive; the smell of the manure lagoons and the thick tule fog in the morning.
Tulefog sounds a little better than manure pit.
Well mine is pretty simple. My previous bike was a Triumph Rocket, so my screen name is Ex-Rocket.
you must use your imagination on mine!:roflblack:
I'm fat, I ride a cycle, and I am a Daddy.:wrong:
Got mine from being in the Air Force...almost everyone that does a career will get a 'callsign'/'handle' if you're in long enough and do enough stupid things (which I was guilty of multiple times). :joke:
In Officer Training School (OTS) I was in-processing and 'asked' by a 'friendly' southern gentlemen if I was a, "Merry Asian." I was quite offended...:yikes:...and it took a lot of self-control to not say or do what I wanted to say and do (one of those times that I didn't do the 'stupid thing') and, politely, I said I was "American-Asian" with emphasis on the "American :mad:" He looked at me like I was an idiot...which, with a shaved head and a serious lack of sleep, I'm sure fit my current description, and said, "That's what I said, 'Are you A-Meri-ASIAN?'!!!"
This story led to many conversations about the incident (at my expense, of course) and I (stupidly) said at one of these 'retellings' that I should use 'Texas-Asian' I could 'communicate' better with my new fellow Texans. Well, that somehow got converted into "Tasian"...which is now my current, and last, call-sign.
Old CB name
Very simple my name "Darren" and "111" was a random number added, just in case there was someone else using "Darren" as a handle.
When I signed in back in 2008, I figured there weren't too many with the name Dudley in this world, so I went with my first name, "Dudley". Not too original.
My handle is my wife's nickname Dee (Damaris). The Cheff part is when I was a cook for many years.
In Vietnam, I began very fond of the mud when the **** hit the fan. So, its mudmarine.
I always incorporate what I am riding at the time I set up my username.

While I was stationed in Europe with the US Army, I dated a girl from Denmark. She always used to call me "Pickelhead". In Danish it means "Smart Ass". I have no idea why she would call me this.:dontknow::roflblack:;)
About 12 years ago, we bought property out in the country and built a house in the middle of what used to be a cornfield. All of our county neighbors referred to us as "The Girls that built that new house." Over the years we've just become "The Girls" to our families, friends and neighbors.
But.....the nickname that I'm most known for in the Spyder world is "TurkeySlayer". You can find that whole story on this forum.
Looking at all the posts, I'm noticing the screen names above the avatar. Some are self explanatory, some are quite arcane. I was wondering how folks came up with their screen name.
Ozarkryder is pretty simple. I live in the Ozarks, and I ride. The spelling isn't trying to be all cutesy and playing off the "y" in Spyder, it was a mistake in signing up for another forum. l signed up for the Steve Sanders Goldwing forum (aka goldwingfacts.com) and I somehow messed up the sign up process. I originally put it in as Ozarkrider - with and "i", but something went amiss. This was in May of 2005, about 2 years before Can Am even came out with the Spyder Roadsters. I was in the system, but I nor the administrators could retieve my name or password to change it, but as it was in the system and anything we did came back as the name and password were already in use. I liked the name as it was descriptive of where I lived and what I loved to do there, so I re-registered as Ozarkryder with a "y". I have been Ozarkryder on riding related forums ever since.
Edited this post some as I tried this question as a new thread, didn't realise there was a similar one already going. Thanks for moving it to the correct area as I didn't find the "handle" posts when I asked for "screen names". A lot of times it not what you ask, it's how your ask.
Mine is relatively simple. I use a similar name in another forum. I like to keep the usernames the same or at least close so i don't have to remember several different names. The CJ is just my initials, ram because I drive Ram trucks and I'm a man.
