Epic man cave! Are you married? Living with a partner?
I only give 9/10 for that man cave as all Man Caves require a Motorbike.0 -

now that my friend is a man cave
Agreed on minus point of no motorbike. Also a lack of half used paint cans and a no mower is a drawback and think you need a chair like this:

Boff,
Firstly, that's far too tidy for a man cave.
Secondly, WTF is the flowery thing in the bottom left corner?
This is a man cave:
Dark and dingy, like a cave.0 -
Whilst that is a fine Man cave we have to deduct points for lack of space to do anything in the said man cave. I need to find a picture of my old man cave.0

ive only got a measly 10ft x 10ft shed
no bikes (they live inside)
1 x motorbike (in bits)
2x mowers (just showing off)
assorted tools an gardening crapKeeping it classy since '830 -
It's a bit easier to work in now. 2 of the 3 motorbikes in that picture have now gone. Additional shelves have helped remove a lot of the clutter as well.twist83 wrote:Whilst that is a fine Man cave we have to deduct points for lack of space to do anything in the said man cave.

I'm not in the slightest bit green with envy,
My Man Cave (not really a cave at all) currently consists of a corner of our spare bedroom with 1 bike and three stacking crates! I do also have a corner of the sitting room dedicated to my PC set up.
Cant wait until i get a proper house."If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got."

'68 Bonneville frame hanging in front of the blue Yam. The red strap is holding it up. The engine was at work at that point and the tinware is out of view on the top shelf at the back.Libraio wrote:Veronese68 wrote:Boff,

I was visiting one of Mrs EKE's relatives who lives in Nottingham and in his spare house he has about 50 steel road bike frames, mainly from 1960 to 1980, in the loft.itboffin wrote:MonkeyMonster wrote:getting the bike into the loft through a ladder space was fun but nice now it's all set up. now i need the microfridge and kettle and jobs done - perhaps one of those usb powered in cup heaters...

Well, if he needs a spare house 50 spare frames doesn't sound unreasonable.0

In the loft????
As I know MM I don't think it would be a good idea for him to be above anyone with those sweat levels.Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.

The whole house is full of bikes. I would guess around 150 at least. He has things like a titanium Raleigh MTB, which he rode once and then put away.
The bath was full of handlebars, one bedroom was full of wheels, there were at least five tandem frames and he had a tricycle.
Most of the frames were in pristine condition. He told me a brief history of most of the frames and it often included getting it re-painted after he acquired it and before going into storage.
Apparently, he hated his job but was well paid for doing it, so he sank crazy money into his hobby of everything bike related. He said he doesn't even ride any more, but he used to race against Lord Chris Boardman's dad.FCN 3: Raleigh Record Ace fixie-to be resurrected sometime in the future

Took a while getting it up there too but the trainer + bike is in a bath in the loft to manage said sweat levels Le Cannon [98 Cannondale M400] [FCN: 8]

My turbo dungeon. PS2, internet, stereo, oscilloscope etc. I'm considering dismantling a PS2 controller to see if a more comfortable arrangement can be arranged..0 -
Ok, so I admit I was too lazy to seek out the original thread when I started the new man cave thread. I was pottering about in the cave today so can update the library picture I lazily used. Now down to just one motorbike, in bits and a load of stuff. Important stuff mind.
