My three bikes are in the basement, two on a gravity rack and one hanging from a hook in a rafter. I have extra wheels hanging from hooks in a few studs.

I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

My bike is frequently left on the bike rack on my car. Otherwise, it stays in the garage with DH's. However, DH had to build a shed for the lawnmower, motorcycle, kayak, etc--so the kid's can stay in the house![]()

In the garage. Its just me for the most part so I have half the car for my bikes, half for the car. I am compulsively neat (my dad kept the garage neat as a pin, so I do too) so it bugs me to have them leaning, but I have not gotten wall mount racks up yet.
When my SO visits with his bike, it gets to come in the house. It wears red white and blue and carries a USPS team bag, so it gets special celebrity treatment. Seriously, I "borrowed" it for his birthday to take some pics (my avatar pic is one)...and I put it in the house after and went to ride my MTB. I started thinking about halfway through my ride about whether or not I shut the garage door (and access to the house) when I left....I had to stop and call the officer on duty for the sector where my house is and have him run by and check for me! I had...
We have a really big garage. All 5 bikes (one for each of us), a freezer, gardening stuff, the *&#^* we don't know what to do with, and 2 cars easily fit there. We used to have bunny cages out there as well, but that's another story.

We have a really big garage too. We have a bit of a wheel fetish so it's a good thing!
We have a racecar on a trailer, two cars, ten bikes, DD's first tricycle, a folding scooter and three sets of roller blades in our garage! I think we need to have a wheel intervention!
We have a nifty rack that is modular (so grew as the number of bikes grew) and holds 6 bikes nose-in or tail-in. This holds DD's MTB, DH's comfy roadie, hard tail MTB and dually MTB, my hard tail MTB and my dually MTB.
My roadie hangs upside down from the ceiling above this rack on two hooks into a ceiling joist. The tandem hangs from the ceiling in one corner on one of those really nifty bike lift things with pulleys that you can raise and lower.
My old antique roadie lives on the magtrainer in front of the tandem.
Humblest apologies - the tenth bike (DH's head down and belt it out roadie) is currently at DH's work, hanging from the ceiling of his office on another bike lift, sadly waiting to be ridden again since he's been too busy at work lately to go for a spin at lunchtime!![]()
In the living room on a steel rack. Mine goes on the top, BF's on the bottom. I see them as soon as I walk in the door to the apartment.![]()
We are quickly multiplying our stable so it seems like bikes are everywhere in our house.
The roadies live in the guest bedroom. We don't have kids to use it and we don't have guests often.
DH's Commuter lives in the garage, as do our combined 4 mountain bikes. We had a shed built to house the camping supplies and lawn equipment so half the garage would be freed for bikes. I park my car inside but there is plenty of room for more bikes.![]()

Ours currently live in the common area of our dorm room. I don't know where I'm putting mine next semester. DBF's is going in his room, but mine will be smaller than his, and I don't know where it'll be staying. Not outside and not in the bike room for the building, that's for sure.
4 bikes in around 900 sq.ft. means 1 in the living room, 1 in the bedroom, and 2 in the hallway. There are bikes everywhere.
To me, there's nothing more beautiful than a bike, so I don't mind.
The bikes share the garage with the motorbikes. Our other garage is a workshop, and the cars live outside.
At some point I will probably get some hooks etc. to hang them up and organize them a bit better.
