BIKE: Bike Storage Options

I built a bike rack in my back yard for way cheap using bent rebar in a
"U" shape stuck in concrete---then I covered the rebar with pipe
insulation and colored duct tape so the rack would be soft (won't scratch
the bikes)...then covered it with a rudimentary structure (wood and that
fiberglass and metal roofing stuff from the hardware store).  Works great
and holds multiple bikes!
