B-E-A-utiful... Nice pic.

My Garage looks exactly like your friends except for the carpet, display cases, tables and miscellaneous motorcycles hanging around.

Looks like your set for a pretty great day.

Dang beat me to it!

Def a fall catalog winner.

The only fall shot I have of my car is this...

Not exactly the fall I was hoping for...

Looks like a great shop to talk bmw though!

Beautiful shot Bill. I was going to try for a picture today but I thought with the gray skies it wouldn't turn out. You definitely proved me wrong there.

Nice looking bike (and garage), too. Lots to look at!

[BillWilliams]

Matthew.

That was on Rosemary Drive off of Rt 32. I saw this lane last Thursday and it much prettier then. If I would of had someone with me, it would have been a good shot to blow up that lane at speed with leaves blowing around.

It had been raining about 15 minutes when I took this shot. The orange car would have been nice there too.

Maybe next year

Matthew, Jim is not far away (five minutes) if you ever are interested in seeing some old bikes. Jim does not work at that place you do not work at.

[Scott Sislane]

wow, nice pics & amazing collection. We're getting the MD rain all day today. No photo-ops up here.

[thehackmechanic]

Yup, my garage looks just like that too. Except without the motorcycles. And the display cases. And the cool BMW-related brick-a-brack. And the retro diner tables and chairs. And with greasy crap everywhere.

Snakedriver, You trying to grow up and be like me? I got one installed two years ago. I was taking out a diff a few weeks after I got home. Ruth yelled at me but I was lying on my back so I saw no harm.

Enjoy being pain free my friend!

[TonyHavana]

Very nice pic, Bill.

And is that your friend's garage......or living room?

[BillWilliams]

Tony, that is a good one. Nicer than any room in my house!

[ArdenK]

Hey Bill,,

Great pics of the car, the colors are Awesome!

That "garage" looks more like museum or show room, It's WAY to neat to call a garage.

Here is my understanding of Crazy George of CA

Wealthy real estate guy.

Wife dies

Son gets killed on a black Vincent

George goes crazy becomes a street person

Buys ever black motorcycle he can find so no other young son will get killed.

George dies

Someone finds George's barn full of black motorcycles, mostly Vincents

Jim ends up with maybe the only BMW in Crazy George's collection

Now you know.
