Finally! A garage!
I had a few beers a couple of nights ago with Bethany. I hadn't seen her in 4 or 5 years. She offered me the use of space in her mostly empty garage to work on the Sporty and future bike projects. The timing was perfect. With the bike currently crammed into a tiny second floor storage unit with lots of other crap, and barely enough parking space at my house, let alone a place to work on motorcycles, I basically had no idea what I was going to do. It's good to have friends. She has more or less given me free reign of coming and going and will give me a key to the garage door lock. For free! I went by today to look at it and it will be just fine. Plenty of floorspace. A cold water sink. Not much work top space. It could be closer, but at about 8 miles away it's not too bad. I need to find the best alternate route that isn't I-5 though. And I'll have to get used to working on the floor instead of on a lift. I've been spoiled for many years, being able to work on my own bikes in a pro shop environment. Access to air, special tools, cleaners, etc. Regardless of all that, I couldn't be happier to have a garage again. Thanks Bethany.
