So there are nine tire slots, and if they moved the rack away from the wall it could hold 18 bikes, 22 if the ends were used. Not that there would be that many bikes needing to park at this store. It just seemed inconsiderate to take up so much space. I was going to say it's not that big a deal, as I have real life challenges to deal with, but I did take the trouble to post a photo and gripe about it. I suppose I am turning into a grumpy old man. Somebody call me a "waaambulance."
