Working on motorcycles and classic cars

One of my favorite hobbies is working on classic cars and motorcycles. As a child I always worked on the project car and learned a lot about the technology/engineering of that time, this is also where my passion for mechanical engineering originated. My most recent project is my motorcycle that I bought as a fixer-upper and that I ride today.
