Fantasy Garage: Building the Perfect Man Cave
Fantasy Garage: Building the Perfect Man Cave
It’s January, it’s stupidly cold outside and your bank account is as empty as the Donald Trump book of Tact and Diplomacy. The bike is sitting unloved in the garage, drowned by a tide of recycling and domestic junk that accumulates over the off-season. You know that you should really be fettling away in preparation for the season ahead, but it’s pigging difficult to find your motivation at minus one Celsius under the pathetic ring of light from a 100 Watt bulb, whilst you trip over a pile of old newspapers and the balding Christmas tree that you haven’t got round to taking to the tip.

WALL OF FAME

Cyril Despres’ riding jacket from his last Dakar and Ricky Carmichael’s race shirt sit next to Roger de Coster’s race jeans from 1977 and a set of Johnny O’Mara’s Gaerne Boots. Poster size prints of your racing triumphs are essential, as are Forest Gump style pictures of you with racing heroes – look that’s me poking Gaston Rahier with a baguette and another of me giving Taddy Blasuziak a wedgie – Good times.
MEZZANINE MONKEY

Obviously putting your corner sofa on the garage floor would be silly, so a cool crash pad / lounge / snack kitchen / bar at the top of a set of stairs over your garage is the way forward. Add a shag pile rug and some funky lighting – do they still sell funky lighting – and get ready to chillax. Cool as the cool side of the pillow
