Garages are for bikes! But my garage was uninsulated, crammed and cluttered with stuff, and basically unfit for a YouTube backdrop. So I gave it a makeover.
Like me, the garage is still a work in progress. Next steps will be building a little workbench into a corner with a wall-mounted air compressor connection, a (larger!) ultrasonic cleaner, and wall storage for bike stands, wheels and a speaker.
Here's some of the stuff I use:
