Anyone else out still riding on the nice days?

I JUST HAD THE BEST 5 MINS OF MY LIFE SINCE I LEARNED TO JERK OFF.

Took the bike out for my first ever ride, just down the street and not any main roads. Good lord what a rush! I can't wait for spring.

Was your roof leaking? Your tape has become de-muded.

Also nice bike. Want a real kick, take the wife out to the old gi radge and give her a good "once over" on the bike. Know'm sayin!

Yeah it was a few years ago, whole garage needs to be done. Add it to the never ending list of spring projects...

Lol I was just messing with ya. Spring will now consist of getting the bike ready for summer, fall consists of getting the bike ready for winter. It's a vicious cycle.

Doesn't that smack you in the face when you walk through the door?
And is there a room above the garage? If so, that taping or lack thereof is against code. Fumes could leak into the house. Not trying to be a dick, just a safety fyi.

Yup! I used to have to do car prep for the same things, but now I no longer have any summer cars. Guess it's a good thing else I may have gone broke! Then again, what's the purpose of the daily grind if not to spend on your hobbies?

Nah, it's off to the side and high enough. Never hit me or brushed against me else I would've done something about it by now

No room above.

Geezus I wish my garage was that empty. It took me a day to organize things enough to make room for my bike when I bought it in the fall. When I had to get my wife's bike in there as well a few months later I opted for just stacking **** in the corner to make more room.

A guy 'round the corner only had his Audi and his bike in his garage. Walls and floors painted immaculately. Framed pictures on the walls. Mine is the exact opposite.

I used to deliver to a Snap-On dealers house where I saw the biggest cluster-F of a garage I've ever seen to this day. When I put up his garage door (he was never home, I had his garage code) sometimes after the door went up it looked like there was another wall behind it.

Mine has been bad at times but at least there were trails from one point to another. Now it's kinda reasonably well organized, just too much **** in it still.

Organization! Get to it

Precisely what I'm aiming for this spring. The neighbor's garage is so perfect. Guess it should be when he's parking a M6 Gran Coupe in there, and a Scuderia in the past!

That sucks.

You can only organize "too much ****" so many ways, and in the end, it's still "too much ****" just piled differently. I need to have a garage sale I think. But of course, whatever I sell...I'll promptly need 48 hours later.

I think that garage has more square footage than all 3 levels of my house.

Messy Garages stress me out

My old Garage

My New Garage

It's a little messy right now and I have to clean it this weekend.

Back on topic, Rode to work today

I had the dirt bike out briefly yesterday for a bit of investigative maintenance.

In terms of garage management, life became much easier after I bought two of these PrincessAuto tri-dollys for each of the bikes. Pop one under the rear wheel and one under the kickstand and the days of sawing the bikes back and forth to get them out of their hibernation spot in front of the car are over. Pulling a bike out or putting it back now literally takes seconds rather than being an ordeal.

I drove around a little this morning in the van after a car wash.
It's now covered in a fine layer of salt dust again.

I guess the benefit to those who ride in the salt, is that loctite probably won't be needed.

 

[Matt Rain]

I reckon that most engine bolts on my bike "loctited" themselves roughly 20 years ago.

First ride of 2016 in!!!!

The benefit is riding, free 407, free parking, 20 less min commuting each way. Maintenance deals with the downfall.
