Murienn, are you making fun of my garden shed turned into a bike house ? I didn't design this house, but it's a good thing we have this option, as the lower level of my house is living space, not a real basement. There are storage closets down there, but much more of a pain to take the bikes out from there. Our garage is not attached, is 30 years old and is not tall enough for DH's car to get into (yes, he has the evil SUV everyone here makes fun of). So, my car is in there, along with various things like the huge snowblower, ladders, leaf blowers, and my ever growing collection of therapy toys.
