Its either because my name is Julian, or its because I loved the name of Richard Gere's character in American Gigolo -Julian.....I'll let you decide!

@pedaplirate or pedalpirate? Is that like Sotally Tober?
No... it was attention to detail. It's suppose to be pedalpirate, but apparently I entered it in wrong. Who has two thumbs and feels like a D-bag????? THIS GUY! By that I mean me!

I had a 93 Cobra back in the day. I installed a 180 Nitros shot but hid the entire install so the techs at Sears Point couldn't say I needed all the precaution stuff. I don't like a bunch of different screen names so I stick with the same one

4x15mph started with joining jeepforum.com. My jeep was a four cylinder 4x4 that topped out at 60 mph (4x15mph) going down hill with wind behind my back.

Back in the day, all my friends would descirbe me as the "Witty one" in the bunch as I would always have the clever one liner come backs, so Suchawittygal became my screen name for EVERYTHING. It's just always stuck. My license plate reads WITTY 1 also.

Williamson is the last name, and at one point I had a 2001 BMW 330CI and the model code was E46. And ever since than I have stuck with the same screen name on everything.

I reload my ammo and am pretty anal-retentive about how well my rounds perform... I don't like to hunt with anything unless I can get under 1" groups at 100 yards.

uuuuh... Just got bored with screen names I've used in other forums. Some reason I recalled a friend using it in his email address that day and that's what I ended up with. At least that's where it started on the YBJ forums. I just carried it over here to maintain some continuity between the two sites.

Mine came from a childhood nickname Speed Limit then turned up into Lightning Speed when I used to drag race My 68 SS Chevelle. Only lost once in that car. Went too fast in my bracket..Good days. Been using it forever on the WWW.

Mine is pretty easy, I ride a Yamaha SuperJet and my name is Dan. My previous username at "the other site" was SHOCKED, that came from my days of owning two different 2003 Ford SVT Lightning's, the shocked part is what happens when you get struck - that was also my license plate on my first Lightning, the other one the license plate was BUILT and it was a mean truck 620 RWHP :cool:
I would have recognized SHOCKED. Now I will have place new names with old names.

Mines my first name. I figured it would be unique enough to be a screen name too so I went with it. Boring I know!
