Absolutely. And yes, it's also the storage unit for camping gear, winter sports equipment, bikes of other family members and car extras like roof racks.30m2 is a decent space, but if used for other hobbies/activities and storage of other things in life other than cycling, then space can get tight. Especially if you have 20 bikes to start with!!!
At the moment some of the bikes are donor bikes, some of them are for sale to finance the whole show and the ones I ride I change every now and then.Our 12x8 feet not metres shed has barely enough room for my 1 bike with all the rest of the winter storage
Remember folks winter in Scotland is 11.75 months of the year
Im so jealous of all these big spaces, but how the hell do you get the time to ride all these extra bikes you have people?
I found some really good offers and some bikes I even got for free. I can't say no in such a case....

How dare they! I hope my boy doesn't get into cycling seriously, otherwise we'll have problems!!!
I know! I know! It's hard to say no when things are great value, and that dreaded FREE phrase!!!

I have to back a car out to work. Summertime heat here in the desert will drive me to work inside the house.

In idle hope that I gained extra space when I cleared my very limited shed ....

I love to see other people's bike storage solutions, so keep them coming!!
We rent and I have a tiny cellar with room for either 8 bikes (we are four counting the kids with ever growing bikes), or 4 bikes and some space to work on them. So it keeps me in-check for not overdoing the local classifieds. One-in, one out.
But we bought a place in my hometown so we don't annoy the grandparents when we visit, and it has no storage room. The walls are either dry wall or very old bricks holding together with very sandy mortar, so hanging the bikes is not an option. I was thinking in something like this, explained in this link:

Any feedback or potential issues? I would build mine for just 4-5 bikes, and put wheels at the bottom to move it around when needed. There's a commercial version, but it's crazy expensive for what it is...
