bike ramp for storage
Discussion
i've just moved to a new house with a garage and a covered walkway alongside. i'd like to keep the garage clear, so wanted to store the motorbike in the covered pathway alongside it. the only snag is that the path is about a foot up from the access road. ive been looking online, and the only real ramps i can see are designed for loading bikes into vans, these are about 2m long, which seems excessive for a 30cm drop. i was thinking of buying a cheap one and cutting it down, is there a better solution? i commute 2-3 times a week, and cant leave the ramp in situ so it needs to be a temporary solution.

What bike is it? A trail bike should be able to bump up that using a small block.
Road bike may need something longer due to ground clearance as said above.
You can get folding ramps, buy one & see if 1 half of it is long enough, if not joint it together again for the entire length.
If it's not a shared path or rented property can you not fill in & extend the steps to have a permanent slope?
