But I realized that would bias towards the gang here where all they'd have to do is get a wide angle shot of their bike in the hotel parking lot tomorrow...

So, instead, let's do a picture of your bike with a vintage bike in the image someplace. Can be any vintage bike... Doesn't have to be yours, and to keep it flexible, "vintage" for this purpose is any bike made prior to 1995.

Thumbs Up Yeah, baby!

I swung by the Bike Shed on the way home from work today and caught this sweet Guzzi El Dorado.

Speaking of vintage, dig the ‘49 Ford in the background.

Sweet, Gone.

Not sure which I would ride on that day if given only one choice: The Guzzi or the Ford?

Yep...one of the most beautiful photos you'll see of bikes n garage. If you were feeling out-of-sorts, you could do worse than pulling up a chair with your favorite beverage and just...stare.

tommymck, it just dawned on me that your glorious photo is reminiscent of Honda’s advertisement for the 2017 CB1100.

That picture is very awesome, Tommy - I would really like to hear the explanation of that very deliberately cut piece of carpet under the older bike.

Great pics GI60! Exactly what I was talking about.

Regarding the carpet, it came out of a boat that I used to own. The cutouts were for seat pedestals and a deck storage locker. I use it now to crawl around whatever bike I'm messing with.

Aaah a boat... that makes sense. I was thinking '80s Toyota van? No, too wide.

Wow, nice collection!
