Hello, my name is Chris. Husband of One, father of Two and friend to many. I found this site searching for garage ideas. I think I've spent 6+ hours on this site alone already today. Holy Schnikes!
I currently have a single car unattached garage (Model T garage) with a dirt/gravel floor. Right now it is just storage for everything not bolted down as we are trying to sell our historic home.
I like to perform my own vehicle maintenance when I can. I like to tinker with things, rebuild them, restore them or customize them. I collect, ride and restore Old School BMX bikes. I have a few beach cruisers too. I probably have about 18-20 bikes with many parts. It's a sickness I guess. Although I do ride them all, just not at the same time }: >
The biggest item that still eludes me in my dream garage planning is how to store and display my bikes while still leaving room for all my workshop and lawn equipment. I have a few ideas already and will probably start with some sketches and get some kind of rough outline. It will stay rough until we actually purchase the house. At least a few bikes will need to be accessible to my kids and my wife so mounting them high up on the wall is out. If anyone has already tackled this problem, let me know. I'd love to see what you've done.
I look forward to becoming a regular contributing member and sharing ideas with you guys here at the garage journal.
