    I lied. Only 9 in the conservatory. But 3 of these will be going back to university in a few months. If the picture works.

    Mine live in my apartment - road, hardtail and trail. Shame I have a pale coloured carpet but will be switching to hardwood eventually and the bikes cost more than the carpet.

    Wooden shed with 4 bikes in. Road bike and SS are up against the wall held in by a cheapo non-bike-specific storage hooks that were £1.50 from wilko. Two MTB's then lean up against the wall. Padlocked in with a shed alarm.

    I have a 20 x 8 ft container up on the farm yard and most are stored in there. Not much crime round here but doesn't mean I'm immune to the scumbags. Th container is triple padlocked with high security locks. It'd be quicker to cut through the steel doors with a plasma torch but the dogs would go nuts. Sorry, go for nuts!

    The container doubles as a sort of workshop too but the last bike I built was built in my living room, much to the annoyance of the Wife!

    I keep one of my own bikes and two of the kids bikes in the utility room for those times when you just have to get in the saddle without needing to go up to the the yard and unlock the container.
