Loving the motorcycle combination outsideI guess it (and the garage) dates from the mid to late 20s.
A nice big V-twin by the looks of it...

That's lovely Peter... I like that, minimalist and does exactly what's needed with no frills

The west side is the best - depending on what you want, its also warmer, but we prefer the east, still beautiful but more rugged with less people and traffic and free parking everywhere. This is fairly typical of the east side. (Sorry its not a garage)
