Do bicycles and cars mix?
Thanks for doing the math, Pete. I was pretty certain that George would lack
the ability to do so. Of course, since I am screening everything he is
posting, I wasn't going to help him with this, either.

PS: My garage is more than 700 sq. ft. in a 1800 sq. ft. house. While it can
hold 2 cars and stuff, its primary intention was to store cars. That it
doesn't do so is a sad claim to past consumerism, thoug it does protect my
bikes, now.

George,
No. You are wrong. 1/3 of my house, and every house on every street on
which
I've lived has a garage supposedly dedicated to cars (bigger houses
simply
have bigger garages nearly in the same proportion in most
neighborhoods,
though there are some areas where the size of the house greatly
exceeds
this
basic rule).
Do you expect anyone to take you seriously? A 2,100 foot square
house,
the average now, would have to have about 50 or more cars to meet your
criteria.
Might wanna recheck your math, there, Georgie.
How much space is devoted to a car in the garage? Just the car, nothing
else. An Explorer is 15.5 x 6. Car is only 6' wide, but you gotta open the
doors. Maybe 19 x 12?
1/3 of your "average house" is 700 sq ft.
19x12 = 228 sq ft You can only fit 3 of those in that 700 sq ft. Hey,
we
just invented a 3 car garage!
Not "50 or more". What kind of cars are YOU thinking of? Maybe something
that is 8' x 5'? A 60's Mini isn't even that small.
