OIC. Mine is just like his cept mine has six more motor cycles three more quads and one more ATC. I sold my Jeep and my fridge is in my wife's shop.

But RRs shop is above reproach for sure. I would be afraid to make a mess in there.

And we have mud in Washington. This is a joke ya know.

My second man cave. It's a bush shack we own about 50km from where I live. I have fuel out there, so often ride forest all the way, refuel and head home. This day it started hailing, and I had just bent my bars and twisted the forks.

Pulled in here, light the fire, went to work on the bike, eating my lunch and listing to tunes. Dried out my gloves and managed to lose three hours. Love these kind of days

Sorry I missed this, stacking the girts on their sides are called "commercial" girts and make putting the siding on a PITA. Most pole barns are not built with commercial girts but with traditional flat ones like I used. I gotta think they would sag. Remember, the distance between poles is 12 feet.

I have roofed and will pour concrete tomorrow, about 33 yards. Oh and decided to go ahead and install the radiant heat in the slab. I used more than 1000 zip ties yesterday and my finger tips are burning.

Mine is small.. one car garage. Ive crammed as much as I could into the small cave; however, I love it. It is toasty warm if I leave the heat on in the winter for those winter projects on the KLX

We have a multi-use man cave (surprise parties, butcher shop, etc) that gets a lot of use. Took me two
years of spare time to build it (I did everything except concrete). I'm blessed w/ a lot of stuff to work on...

These two bikes belong to my pop (just put new tires on for him). I got him on a bike for the first time when
he was 62(he's now been to BikeWeek w/ me the last 7 years). We've prob logged 30k miles riding together.

Hey nice Wing there Dynobob!
Got to like the Pitbull for all the tinkering.....I have one also.

Here's my other half of the fun...she gets the best spot in the cave.

Beautiful bike. I want those chrome wheels! The wing is some of the best money I ever spent. We did 970 miles down to the Smokies last weekend.

Here's my mobile man cave (dyno room). Have had this setup since '95.

In front is my "jurassic" 1993 CBR I bought new. It has a mild blow-thru turbo system @ 200hp.
