Lots of good names already. Here's a couple i thought of that sounded kool:
The Bent Spokes
The Pedal Draggers

If anyone takes my name, I want a commission on it:
The Dropouts
I think a couple of ads in a local paper that "new club now forming" will attract a core group
of the right kind of people. That worked this year as we got "Bike New London" off the ground
and years ago a VW club formed around here called Shoreline Vee Dubs that was started the
same way.
Good luck!

THE RIM RIDERS
Also run an ad in the Craigslist bike ads. It would help to already have several people together ("Join us" as opposed to "Join me").
The Chain Guards
Wooden Men on Iron Bikes
The Heavy Cruisers (unless you're personally heavy, in which case, people would take it wrong)
Main Street Rollers, Main Street Coasters, etc.
Bruisin' Cruisers
What I've noticed around here, for myself, is that there's not enough interest in any one thing. I like to ride, not dawdle, not pub cruise, and so that puts me into the charity rides and stuff, as opposed to anything involving cruiser bikes.

What the Fork Bike club.
so is anyone on here interested in maybe joining and if ur outa state then maybe u can start a chapter
If you want to start a club, find two more people who wants to ride. map out a fun and interesting route and ride. after the first ride make a time to get together next and each of you invite two people, again mapping a fun route make your rides on the same day each week. soon you will ragular riders, and if the interest is there you can find a good club name and a club is born.
If you just pick a name and hope people join up with you, some people won't like the name and soon some body will want to change the name becuase they thought up a new name.
If you go on craigelist you may end up with a ride like citical mass and then you can talk to people who ride bikes like yours.
Find the people then work into a name.
I've been to same of the Coasters events and I must say for an informal club they have big turnouts. We had a great time at the Mid-West Bike Fest this year.
my two cents, Don

We should have a bike club section. Easy to find one in your area, and see where they are meeting.
