I’d get an outdoor structure to store the bikes outside if I could be convinced they would be 100% safe. Too many degenerates thieving from garden sheds here though.
If I had decent ceilings in my garage I’d do something like that or get the electric hoist Mike showed and fit a platform to it. Unfortunately they are super low. The highest ceiling in the house is the alcove where I’m putting the manual hoist.
True enough but this had good reviews and I can return it easily enough with Amazon. I also have a small issue with space in terms of moving the rope to free the mechanism. This is a very high quality pulley so hopefully that helps with this issue.
Edit: the Amazon pulley has a no slip...
Going to rig up a hoist in a ceiling alcove in my office to haul the bike up into out of the way. There’s just enough room to pull it up out the way with the tires clear of the main ceiling level. Had to hunt around for a system that would let me get the top of the bike closer to the alcove...
I’ve been playing with a Garmin Varia radar rear light thing as they were on sale a few weeks ago. It’s awesome. Warns you when there’s a car(s) behind you and then tells you how fast they are approaching and when they are clear.
I read somewhere that bobsledding is what summer sprinters sometimes get into to while away the season change. Makes more sense in that regard for a Jamaican bobsleigh team as the nation has a history in sprinting!
