Maybe a unicycle is a uink? or an oink?

I find it amusing that the hard core cyclists are offended by the term "bike". I suppose they consider a "bike" to be a kids toy and they are trying to assert themselves. On the other hand, Harley riders seem to by quite content calling their machines "bikes" or even to themselves being called "bikers".
