I'm looking for something like the racks REI uses in store to pack all their bikes together I think.
They sort of work like this:

In the store they'll have two rows of bikes facing eachother with their front wheels up as shown in the pic above. So two facing bikes only take 7'. I'd only use half of it due to room size but it would make the bikes organized and only take about 4 1/2' or so.
Here is the room I'm trying to organize the bikes in case someone has a better plan (not planning on trying to shove my xtracycle in there).
The short wall on the right is about 9' the top and left are 10'. The ceilings are less then 7' high so those stack two on top of eachother on the wall things won't work and I'm trying to make it easy for my wife to use so.

I want to avoid blocking the closet if possibly because it is where alot of clothes/coats hang up.
This one doesn't look like It would fit two road bikes with wider bars.

I found this but have never seen it mentioned. It might fit one on the right top wall and one on the left top and get 4 bikes in there. Problem is wife wife has 4 bikes now.
