Where do you keep your bike?

Notices
Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

C. Dining-room/Kitchen

They adjoin, with a "breakfast bar" between them; this is my work area, and my bicycle leans against it.

Currently two in the bedroom (one is my coach's bike, I'm testing it), and one in the living room/kitchen (they're kinda the same place, it's a small condo).

So, C.
