Our bikes live in the utility room, apart from when we’re on holiday when they migrate to the spare bedroom. When they need tinkering, rebuilding, etc, it either gets done outside or in the kitchen, depending on weather. Ideally we’d like a garage, but we don’t have a garage, so meh. The bikes are well maintained and secure, and so far we haven’t died of food poisoning from the bikes sneaking into the cupboards and molesting the foodstuffs.
We’ve talked about getting a shed and keeping a couple of the cheaper bikes in there to free up some space in the utility room (we could actually start keeping mops and stuff in there!), but there’s no way the full sussers are living in a shed. And good god, just keeping it outside under a cover? ARE THEY MAD?
Quite intrigued by the idea of wall hooks though – as Mr Toast is 6ft 6 we could put all his bikes up by the ceiling. We might even be able to fit in more bikes! AIBU?
