Hivemind thoughts requested: how can I store my husband's bicycle safely and in a place that is better than its current location, which is leaning against the stove? We have no garage. We have front and back porches, but have a neighborhood crime problem and nothing metal to lock the bike to in either location. Our front door opens into the living room and our back door opens into the kitchen, neither of which has spare space for a bicycle. Creative ideas?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Creative ideas?
Hooks on the ceiling or wall?

What is even happening?
Is there a wooden bannister on the back porch? Could you lock it to that? True, someone could saw through it, but the thief would have to come with the saw. Is there a basement?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I am sitting here at home, waiting for the estimator from a local moving company to come and do an estimate on moving our stuff. Once that's done, we will have three estimates and can choose a mover. Whee...

Ann, that's a ferret.
By his mugshot, he looks too stupid to live.
Just the mugshot? I'd say
throwing the cat at animal control officers and for being a smart ass to the judge
is pretty good evidence.

Now tagless for your comfort.
flea, here are a few examples of different bike racks for storage.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
flea, I have the same problem, so my bikes get stored in the living room right now. If I had a back porch I'd try to bolt in some sort of rack that I could lock the bike to. One way might be overhead hooks to hang the bike (I use these to hang my bikes down in the basement for the winter), and then securing the bike with a lock cable to an eyebolt secured to the wall or a post.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I have been so efficient this morning! Found my bathing suits, changed a light bulb, and made three different kinds of soap! Now I suppose I have to go to work, which is no fun at all. Ah well.

Art Crawl!!!
You are too industrious for so early in the morning.
I think you should go back to bed.
Meanwhile, we are a very unchatty bunch today. I expect to come in to 100s of messages and where the heck are they?
Also, I need coffee.
