How many wheels in your garage?

[PomBstard]

Just been clearing out the garage, and realised lots of things in there have wheels:

2 childs bikes
1 scooter
4 adult bikes
1 single Mountain Buggy
1 double Mountain Buggy
1 MX5
1 skateboard
1 trolley jack

Total wheels: 33



I can fit the Forester in there too, which has a couple more scooters in the boot, so best score is 42, but 33 is usual

How about you?

At out new house I found a shed with 22 rusty old bikes in it!

So, 44!

[kambites]

None because it's currently being rebuilt.

Before that it contained, amongst other things, my complete childhood collection of toy-cars, so several thousand.

Wheels designed to carry a person would have been 47, I think.

car 4
w/machine 4
tumble dryer 4
roll cab 4
drawers 4
golf trolley 2
vacuum cleaner 2
scooters x2 4
bikesx4 8
lawnmower 4
pressure washer 2
trolley jack 4


46 off the top of my head could be 4 more on freezer but not sure so not included. lots of wheels !

10, 5 double wheel things on the office chair as it was converted before we moved in!

[Twincam16]

Car - 4
Mine, and two housemates' pushbikes - 6
Motorbike I'm picking up this weekend - 2

Total - 12

This reminds me of the game played on here a while back - add up all the engines you've ever owned, put them together - what engine would you have and what displacement would it be?

I'd have a 12.8-litre straight-26

I'm jealous of your massive garage. Does it double as a polling station on election days?

also: seventeen
1x car (5)
1x engine hoist (2)
creeper (6)
trolley jack (4)

[Captain Muppet]

Car wheels: 35.
Plus a couple of steering wheels, three bikes, a BBQ and a box of radio control car bits.

Call it 50.

[sebhaque]

4 Honda alloys
1 Honda space saver
3 Minilites
Bicycle
Trolley jack (4 wheels)

14 wheels in total.

IIRC the rules included having to accommodate the cylinders correctly, so if you had a V-block somewhere along the line, everything would be arranged in V-formation. Can't remember anyone with a W-engine though.

[Rotaree]

3 Cars - 12
2 Tractors - 8
Ride on mower - 4
Mower - 4
Push bike - 2
Quad - 4

Skateboard - 4
Vacuum cleaner - 4

So 60, although to be fair it's more of a barn than a garage.

I might go and have a look to see if I've missed any!

[bobbo89]

Mondeo winters - 4
Nukeproof - 2

Damn, found out...

Anyway, looking at the photo I forgot about the four radiators on wheels along the wall by the Mazda, and a spare Mavic on the wall - so another 17 to my 33, gives me an even half-century.
