Bike, as in singular
Theones that don't get used are in the bike room, the ones that get used the most are in the garage, and the ones that fall in between are currently leaning against the bar.
I really need to clean/organize the bike room.

Mine are in the hallway by the front door of my apartment. It's a little ugly with 4 bikes in about 12 feet and takes up half the walk area, but on the other hand it's all otherwise wasted space anyway.

My daily is in the hallway by the front door. Yeah it's in the way a bit, though visitors can wall past it, but i never go out without it.
I have various other bikes i never use, eight i think, i should get rid of them but for a visitor's bike and my daughter's one - they're all in the spare room (which is actually bigger than my bedroom).

faster downhill
I keep them in the garage, not too worried about theft in my neighborhood, but I would be crushed if any were stolen. I am emotionally attached to them so lock them up in garage, I even use a motion detector lock that sounds a horrendous alarm if disturbed.
I do bring my Di2 bike into kitchen to charge battery, which makes my wife crazy........I mean more crazy.

Bikes that are currently in season are on the back porch, except for my princess roadie, which stays indoors on the first floor "hobby room". There are also bikes and random bike parts in the basement and garage.

Mine are in the basement, standing on the floor, hanging or on the repair stand. The one that I am currently riding is next to the basement door to the garage. Presently, the touring bike is on the trainer in the basement TV room, I'm making some changes and want to check adjustments. Most of my bikes have steel frames, I want to avoid humidity as much as possible to prevent rust and pitting on the chrome, that's why they are in the house.

Mine live in the Bike Cave. Whatever I rode the previous day is normally on the wall by the front door.

Hanging from hooks in the garage for ours. My cousin lives in a smallish apartment in a big city and hers sits right inside the front walkway.
