Bike Names, Part One

All my bikes have names. All those names are in some way related to their color. For example, there are:


* Bridgestone XO-1 = Pumpkin
* Ibis Sonoma Ti = Shadow
* Gunnar Streetdog = Carbon
* Bridgestone RB-1 = Sunny
* Ibis Sonoma = Al

Now, what color is a bike named "Al"?

And why might I give it that name?

The first person to guess the color and the why gets some bike part of real value as a gift for guessing!

Well, Delli, thanks for the guess. And in the case of Al, it's worth remembering that Ibis was a funny bike company. In this case, Ibis called the light green color Pond Scum.

And what is pond scum but algae?

Therefore, the bike is Al, short for Algae.
