Is your Garage Feng Shui Correct?

As I read about others getting their rides out and enjoying the feel of the Ninja between the legs I continue to look up at a gray sky, cold wind, and roads that are still covered with gravel and salt and require a pre-ride to spot the "wheel eating pot holes" that have developed.

Could it be that I have done something to anger the road gods? Is there some bad karma that I am carrying with me? And then it it me - My Garage Feng Shui was all wrong. It didn't take to long to make the necessary corrections. Now I just have to be patient for everything to align correctly.

Bad Garage Feng Shui



Good Garage Feng Shui


And yes a spring project is to clean the garage and start dumping the accumulation of too many moves and "I'll go through those boxes later".

hmmmmm, I gonna say no, because I don't have a garage. But I do have a carport that might be. But that point is mute because the carport is in Hawaii, my bike is California and I am in Alaska.

My garage feng shui is Funged uP at the moment. Started cleaning it up so my Wife can park her car in there and I can have a workspace for the bike/other stuff. Got one half done, but now there is a giant pile of trash on the other side cause I don't have a truck or trailer to haul stuff to the dump. Sometimes my lack of fore thought causes me so much more work......

yeah I know, tell me about it, getting to the point that I am sick of snow. But on the good side, I did see the start of the Iditarod sled dog race, right on the start line, (ceremonial start in Anchorage), to get any closer I would have to be wearing a number. Posted a video of the start and the start of the Jamaican entrant on my facebook page.

I hope you can leave that snow blower covered, and not run that evil lawnmower too often.

My garage is getting tight. Have my GRM project Porsche in there, my roommates race car, his three bikes, my one (and another on thursday), as well as a few engines, and all the tools, there isn't much room left.

Things will be changing drastically shortly as work restarts on the Porsche.

I'm one of those strange guys that went to WallyWorld and bought a 6 foot long GREEN rug to put under the bike while she sits in the garage!

If that is your garage then I both envy and hate you.

That "good feng shui" pic is too funny. I too have been awaiting the spring riding season "forever"! Its been wet,cold, wet, cold for months and I for one am ready. I was cleaning out too and decided to try some new clip ons on my slowly but surely CB550 cafe' project. It is what keeps me going during the long winter riding drought...the 250R is prepped and ready whenever the weather is !!

My garage is still full of junk from moving - man I need to get out there and work on it. And Feng Shui, I think you have to go to the doctor and have those frozen off, lol.

Feng Shui WORKS About 3:00 pm yesterday the sun broke out and the temps started going up. By the time I got home it was in the low 40's. Got the Ninja started, warmed up and had a nice 20 mile welcome back ride.

Rode into work today since the high is supposed to be 65. Tomorrow though there are talking snow again

Hey one day at a time works for Ninja's too

Wow that stinks Don. It was 66 here yesterday, and supposed to be in the low 70s tomorrow and saturday. I keep having to remind myself that this is still spring, so I'm sure rain will be coming soon.
