Seeking vegetable puns for a bike team
June 10, 2018 5:09 PM   Subscribe

A couple of friends and I are assembling a team for a cycling event that benefits a community supported agriculture program. We're looking for a punny team name that incorporates vegetable and/or bicycle words -- something along the lines of "lettuce turnip the beet." Can you help us out?

Locking Grips and Bean Dip?

Whatever the name you go with, I'm giggling at your team logo being someone trying to jam some broccoli into bottom bracket where cheating cheaters put little motors.
