Garage?
A lot of people with a weird concept today...
Your bikes belong INSIDE the house in a room with their own dedicated shower for them to clean.
If you put them in the garage, that's like child abuse and you shall be punished by the bicycle god.

Then my Honda ST1300A motorcycle. That's 5 bicycles and a motorcycle. Two cars, two garbage cans, two large ladders, three pairs of skis, etc.

First you mention puting your bikes in the garage, and now selling your bike? That's totally out of the line.

The Rock Cycle
1 bedroom apt over a 4 car garage. We don't keep bikes in the garage b/c it's a common space, but the Toyota truck lives in there.
In the living room is 2 road bikes (one on a trainer), 2 touring bikes and 2 commuter bikes, plus a spare road frame and 3 sets of extra road wheels. In the bedroom is another road bike and 2 mtn bikes and 2 spare mtn bike frames.
And it's not too crowded in here.

How many? Don't know what the limit is, but I'm not there yet. I have a dozen ready to go with a few others in parts at any given time. There would be room for a lot more if the wife would just give up her car. I keep telling her "You can only fit so much in a 28 x 28 garage!" Don

Finally a post that makes me feel conservative in the number of bikes department. Thanks! Oh yeah, nice bikes . . .

I have 7 bikes in a 1 bedrom apartment without a garage. With a one car garage I could at least double that and still have plenty of room.
