Not in my shed/garage, but spotted in Ghyllside Cycles' workshop having just had the ~30 yr old fork serviced with a new seal kit (that they had in stock!)
Nice ‘94 Explosif.
Not mine but good to see this still in use at a cafe stop
Not in a garage. Not mine. Late 80s or early 90s I guess? Doesn't have the force 40 brake design like my m1000 had. 
My 1990 GT Tequesta which my parents bought me still lives in my FIL's garage. I also have the parts for the Orange Mr O frame which my friend designed.

1990 SM1000.
No pics but I got one of the first 100 Souls a while back, which I thought I'd go mountain biking on (because I had a gen 2 and absolutely loved it, my first superbike) but time has not been kind! So instead it has 2.5 slicks on and is only used for going to the shops, which it is kind of brilliant at. I'll take it to glentress or something some time but it is sooooo short, I barely remember how to ride bikes like this.
I managed to build it up with almost the same bits as I had on my first Soul in 2009, and in a nice twist bought off ebay my old Revelation u-turns that I sold on here in about 2013, without realising.
My 2002 Cove Stiffee has just been superseded as pump track bike frame to go and hang in the shed with a 1993 Marin Muirwoods that was my first proper grown up mountain bike.
Not massively old, but here are my contributions. Still ride both of them as I've still not yet got round to buying a new bike.
The oldest is my DMR trailstar which I still ride quite a bit at the local pump track:
Then there's my not so old Orange Clockwork reissue (2008 iirc) which I still ride a bit, but not loads:
In the shed and sometimes on the office wall. 1989 Pace RC100 full refurbed. My 1990 Orange Alu ‘O’ - owned since new
and slightly newer….
1995 Dave Yates 653 race bike / campy Record and later Clockwork Orange re-release 2007-8?
I still pootle around on some of these occasionally
oh, I can play this game.
1. Raleigh, nominally Competition, from 83 but was part of a group buy by students of BNC OE group on an annual basis. Too much Campag from new to be standard. 2. Pre war Dawes with various old bits set up fixed. 2.Raleigh Mirage MTB. The purple thing. 26" wheels binned along with everything else. Cotic Road rat forks with right hand disc. Midge bars and White Industries excentric hub with a fixed wheel and 700c rims. 4.2006 Specialized Enduro not worth selling. 5.Hand made Steel frame, Columbus Brain , various Campag groupsets attached. 6. Another, un-named steel frame. Very light. Campag bits. 7,8, 9. three trikes in various variations of assembly.10. My Cervelo TT bike is 20 something years old. 11. Raleigh ??. White with R/Y/B decals. Junk really 12. Puch Touring set up single speed and 700c wheels not original 26x 1 3/813. Orbit Tandem. MTB wheels. 13. Half bike really as wheels in the roof. Raleigh , nominal, Competition from 82 as # 1. 14. Rivola (Google it) Columbus frame mostly built, needs cables but why bother as it is too big. There is something missing but it's raining so I am not going to check.
Wanted. Bigger shed.
Thinking of doing something like this with my Kona, but with klunker bars
Still regret selling my Sugar 1 but it had been hanging in the garage for c10 years after I got my Dialled Alpine.
Pangs of guilt aren’t helped by one of the coaches at my sons disability riding club that has a similar era Fisher hardtail.
Of those of us at the club with MTBs, I’m the Luddite with my 26” wheeled Alpine now my wife has her Scott Lumen.
The coach is proposing a retro bike day (my wife also has a 26” Fisher still) and I would have love to have the Sugar to ride!
Voodoo wanga
Dialled Prince Albert
Recommissioned out of the dusty back of the in-laws garage. New tyres, cables, seatpost and saddle. It’ll be serving ride to the station and lock it duties as it’s essentially unstealable.
nothing on these Raleigh Twenties is standard; BB is custom thread 76mm, wheels are 20” but 451 not 406 so tyre choice limited, head set top race is a nylon bush, front hub is 93 mm bespoke Sturmey Archer, rear an AW3 dating this bike to 1980. Seat tube is 28.6 mm thanks SJS. Saddle is original 1987. Rides like a dream. A heavy dream and double my T-line.
Having recently moved house I now have a larger bike room. I am about to mount my 1999 Marin Attack Trail frame on the wall, I don't think it will ever work again but it is a frame I will never sell
I will also never sell my 2013 Salsa El Mariachi Ti, but that does get used, most recently at SSUK last weekend

Great bikes. I had one as a pub bike in glasgow. Used to unscrew the join lever and leave the whole thing in a heep.. better than any chain.
Some knob stole it from the close.
So i got a dawes kingpin.
We have an old Raleigh Dynatech with the titanium frame tubes in our shed. Used to be my brothers bike, then I borrowed it when he stopped riding and it's been with us ever since. It needs some TLC, and not been ridden in ages, but I cant bear to part with it as it was the first MTB I ever owned (well borrowed technically).
Three Zaskars 🙂
2001 Standard in small (lads bike)
2004 Race (Easton) Mine
2007 Pro (Kinesis) just sold the frame for $300
Pantera too. Well, frame and a set of Bomber 3.5 forks.
(Literally) hanging up in the garage most of the time is me folder. It’s attached to the rafters by a climbing sling and gets dragged out now and again for train trips. It cost me £45. 80’s Elswick Hopper. 
This has become my son's road bike . It had sat in my FILs barn for what must be 30 odd years . Just needed tyres and tubes and it was good to go
