Tell me about it , when I do get time she's made other plans for me !

Just watch the combustibles in there or you'll have a heated shed for a hour or two !

OK, here ya go. I want you to know that my shop/garage was a long time coming. I had to pay off the house first. So after 20 years I was able to build by workshop with a loan on the house from the bank. (We also put a roof on and updated the rural sewer system too) Before that my bikes had to live at my dads house in his garage and I did small projects on the back porch!

(I moved it to a directory like a stupid head.)

Yours is still a tip after a tidy up :biggrin
very true I need to learn how throw things away, I think I have some kind of hoarding disorder, I can't even get in my other garage it's so full of stuff, all essential high value stuff (or in reality a load crap I’ve collected on the off chance I may need it one day) I really really need to sort it out
I've now gone all European and bought a KTM Superduke GT and Aprilia RSV1000R :D ,
Storm is now gone :cry: .

Very observant Jim.

You do have to go to the beach to surf.

yep, mega jealous. I crave a double garage so much, I have a single at the moment with a car in and a bit of space at the front. It's enough to do everything I've needed to (Abba Motoglide changed my life!) but having the car to one side and then bench, road bike, track bike etc on the other :Drool:

Nope, not playing.
My garidj is so small there's not room for a camera.
The stock shed is the same size but it's damp and unlit- again, photos only focus on the lawn mower, and date frames, rolling chassis, cans, engine parts and lecce bits....and coolant pipework....and some SP1 engine bits....and some camping toilets, plus tents, and another little classic Honda, and the cat baskets, and roof box....
See, you don't need a picky.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
