both hubby's and my bike live in the garage! for transport we have a hitch rack for the back of his truck. mine will fit in the back of my car (2-door accord) with the seats down and front wheel off.. his with both wheels off.. but not at the same time... so we always just take the truck if we have to travel to a start point!

we have a few shelves designated as bike gear for helmets, shoes, gloves, etc!
