Anyone come up with anything cunning? Three and four are not a problem, but once you hit five it gets problematic. How do you stop it becoming a tangle of bikes if floor space is at a premium?

    Hang them on the wall, either side-on or by the front wheel?

    EDIT: or from the ceiling? That's what a mate of mine does in his garage. God knows how many bikes there are.

    Got some spare cash and a bit of room in the back garden?

    Dunno, but if you solve it, please let me know. I'm up to 6 bikes of my own, plus two for my son and one each for my wife and daughter; so 10 in all. Good job one of them's a Brompton.

    I have a 10x8 shed in the garden with a 5 bike stand in it and another shed nearer the back gate with the 2 commuters in it and one bike in the garage as well.
