"Finally decided "hey, it's good exercise, get off your fat ass" and rode it, and it's pissed at me for neglecting it.

Despite our failure to quantify it and perform repeatable experiments on the phenomenon, "inanimate" objects do store some kind of positive and negative energies and can "get even."
I state this as a matter of experience, but not experiments.
This "explains," in part, why some people tend to give names to their favorite things. I had an M1 Carbine named "George," and an M9 named "Bruno," and, among other named objects, my car's name is "Suzy."
Suzy Baru, to be formal about it.
Suzy is a bit miffed at me for not changing her oil on schedule and gave me a flat the other day. No big deal, but you guessed it, the spare was flat, too.
The common reaction to this kind of thing is "It figures, don't it?" without delving into the real reason for the problem: the inanimate object was pissed at you.
