Roberta: Thanks for that link. I've been thinking of a stand or 2 and this has the advantage of taking less floor area.
If you try this, particularly with fenders, will you please report how well it works? In other news, 15 years ago or so I scavenged one of those old-fashioned parking lot bike stands from my place of work(*) made with closely spaced vertical tubes to hold bikes by their front tires. This one could hold oh, perhaps 10 bikes, so I had one of the janitors cut it for 4 and drove it home in my van. It worked well, but the bikes stuck out rearward and took up close to half the width of the garage, so I sold it on Craigslist. But someone somewhere makes small ones, for a couple of bikes, and a neighbor has one; I've been unsuccessful so far in seeing him out and about to ask if he wants to sell it. * I was the goy Administrator for the local Conservative Jewish synagogue for a couple of years, which was a rather, well, interesting experience ... When I told them I was an Orthodox Christian -- upper case "O" as in Russia or Greece or Syria -- they looked at me askance; pogroms? But I reassured them that "Jesus was a Jew" and they were mollified. Funny, all the administrators and department heads were goyim.
