It depends which borders you are crossing. They will not ask for bike papers going from the UK in to Europe, and once in Europe you won't cross any 'borders' as you mean it unless you go outside the Schengen countries. Which is a hell of an area, so maybe you don't have a problem ? I went through lots of Eastern Europe before some of them were in Schengen, and before some of them were even in the EU - the only place they even asked for them was leaving Hungary heading for Romania (not in the EU at the time). Even there I don't think they were bothered about names - just checking you had the papers - which you will have. Relax....
