The bike gets the garage, pickup gets the carport and the pete gets the shop.

The atached garage is 24x34 and is the typical man cave/bike shop. The shop is 60x120 and holds the Peterbilt, all 3 of it's trailers and all the tools and parts to go along with it. The pickup sits in a carport off the side of the shop that I built just to keep the sun and rain off of it, it's a 2007 and only has 2300 miles on it so it would probably take me 20 minutes to move enough stuff out of the way to get it out.

Bike, my business rig, wife's Tahoe and golf car in the detached garage, plus there's a carriage house-type section with freezer, refrigerator and more storage. Pickup is outside, but it's tough enough.

Man cave is a 12x20 heated/carpeted "cabin" right behind the house that matches the house/garage - I set it up with two benches and cabinets designed for gun work; has a small kitchen with fridge and bathroom.

My garage holds my car, my wife's car, two bikes, classic car, and a big ol' lawn mower. Plus workshop area. Big garage.

single car garage with 4 bikes in it right now.

haven't put a car in the garage in over 10 years.
although it would be nice in the winter.

i used to kick the bikes in the shed over the winter & pull the car in the garage.

having the bikes in the garage makes it easy to work on them....especially during winter.

Hell NO! I have both my bikes, some tools and I keep my 2011 Soul in a long one car garage. I have to leave the 97 T-bird outside, but it's ok. I don't see the point in letting a nice car sit outside so the garage can hold a bunch of junk.

My garage only has my bike and tools as well. Cars stay outside all the time. I call it man-cave #2 since man-cave #1 is my game room with pool table and bar. Can't smoke cigars in #1 so in the garage I go

No way, no how my car is sitting outside! I'd rent a storage place and park the bike there first.

Lucky for me I have space to put both bikes and the car in the garage. But if I had to, the bikes would be in and the car out.
