Well, it is truly official. I have retired!

I closed my motorcycle shop and 95% of everything is gone to either my home workshop or storage. The tools, all came home! I forgot just how many tools I had acquired over the years.

It’s a funny feeling, being retired, but I like it.

One thing is for sure, I have the best damn home workshop ever. 😆

This year, I will have time for riding! I cannot wait.
 
That’s cool to be able to retire. I’m about 5 years out, all though I’ll probably keep my shop and only do small cool jobs and stop with my mobile welding. Then I can concentrate on motor cycles!
 
Scott
Congrats on your retirement
I hope you plan to post updates on your big move and all thats involved with moving out of country.
As far as my retirement plans go, I'm pretty sure I'll be working till noon on the day of my funeral

This made me smile
My oldest mate is a motor mechanic and has used Snap-on tools from the start of his career
Snap-on here will move your tool box for nothing when you change employers.
Last time he moved the tail lift on the Snap-on truck wouldn't pick the tool box up because of the weight of gear in it.

Enjoy your retirement Scott
 
Thank you everyone! Truly wonderful people here. It’s a joy for sure.

Why is it that the last 5% of stuff when moving, seems to be the hardest part of the job? 😆

Lighter fluid, match, yes! (Jail) sigh…

I feel like the lady at the grocery checkout. Pick it up, put it in the box. Rinse and repeat…
