Mine's not that interesting.  It's just got 3 cars and a bike.

Man, I hate these threads.  My bikes live in an unheated 1-car garage that I rent from a friend, 1/4 mile up the street.   I keep them protected from the sun and weather, but that's about it.  Sad  



If I want to really WORK on a bike, I have to bring it into my basement, which is tricky.  I want to build a garage in my backyard, but I'm virtually certain that it would be a waste of money in terms of resale value.

Oh well... there's always the next house.  That one WILL have a garage, I've already made that clear with my wife.

Some nice pics there. I need to snag a few for ideas on getting my garage sorted. We moved in to a new place and I'm on the hunt for ideas.

I also do wood working though so I'd need a split personality type garage. One side for mechanical and one side for wood projects.

Mine is a long 1 car garage with a lift in the middle.  

I'm in a townhome and consider this temporary living till we start our family and such.  Once i move, and have full control over my garage, things will get crazy. Smile

And honestly, I like this set up for at least organizing the bits, both mechanical and wood stuff.

Hmmm, lotsa room in that garage for more bikes.  STN PARTY AT MARKUS HOUSE!


I was playing with putting together pictures for panoramas. It makes the garage appear bigger than it is. You are welcome to come party in the garage whenever you want...but if you're expecting any good riding around here you would be severely disappointed.

thankfully, that's not an issue for me since she has demanded that a garage have at least one space for her ride. my problem is convincing her i need to have 2 more spots for a car and all the bike stuff. or.....  get a lot of land and put a shed way out back that won't detract from her pretty house. looks like i'll have to have 2 driveways...now wasn't there a asphalt thread?   Lol Lol

greench, I hate you so badly, my ears a bleeding a little.  Gods, what a setup.  I'd post pics of my own rig, but frankly, I'm in the middle of moving and trying to convince my wife that I need UFO's VFR.

So right now, it's an empty box with concrete and a few shelves.

greench, you have an immaculate garage.  I love the set up.  But, looking outside your garage, I can see how you keep it so organized and nice on the inside.   Lol  Bigok

JonS - Either way, it's probably drier.  Lol

RDoug - That pic was taken the day I installed the flooring. All that junk outside either disappeared after I put it by the curb with a "FREE" sign or eventually made it's way to the dump.  It's amazing what people will take for free.  Thumbsup
