Hi all

I have battled with my Wife for 'donkeys' about storing my bikes in the house. I have been granted use of a brick build shed attached to the utility room. Its inside the house so secure

The thing is it measures only 5 feet wide x 3 feet deep and is 7 feet high. I need to store 3 bikes in this space, but am struggling to fit them in without damaging them and to be able to get them out with relative ease.

I have tried two facing one way, interlocked etc but cant do it

Anyone have any pics of their storage that may help ?

Pics of yours might also help :? For instance, you say 5x3 ,so which side is the door on? on the 5' or the 3' ? is there a door? Are there any returns on the walls at the opening? (short bit of wall that say the hinge end of the door sits at)
I also suggest hanging at least one on the walls or 2 if that can be managed
heres some wall hooks- (Some of which fold flat when the bikes off it)-

Not knowing bike size i can only just on my own but mine even at 20.5" is likely to be of similar length plus or minus a small amount so it should need the same room approximately :? Follow ?
What im getting at is to fit them both in youre probably going to have to take off the front wheel unless you intend to stand them up. seems about the only way to keep them intact and get all 3 in stood upright, but if you want the middle of end bike youll need to take them all out.
Any a specific commuter bike? Folding pedals would make for a bike of space?
Are you using all 3 ? Can one be 'stood down' (pedals off, bar turned round etc)
