Default Morro Bay bike collector?

Hey guys, one of my teachers said he heard about a bike collector out in Morro Bay somewhere on Morro blvd? by Foster Freeze maybe? He said that the guy had a really big collection of European bikes and opens his garage for the public to see. Anybody heard of this and can give more detailed information? I'm gonna ask some of the locals at bike night tonight.

good find!

Talked to another rider there and he said someone named Patrick from Santa Ynez owns them, private collection.
it's the same guy who has the motorcycle museum in santa ynez
if you havn't been there, it's worth the visit!

my guess is, this is the other half of his collection that there isn't room for in the museum

if it's anything like the solvang museum, you call in advance, pay $5 and have as much time as you want to drool over a TON of motorcycles

Haha, I've been taking short skoots around town and to lake lopez with my friend that just started riding. Trying to build up his confidence so he can finally go the speed limit but the wind keeps scaring him. :

I think I might try to check out the bike collector this weekend with my girlfriend if she comes up. Maybe a short ride as well.
