I just built a 12'x12' shed with a 9'x7' garage door. I vinyl sided it, roofed it, and added vented soffit for air circulation and attached it to a cement pad with a built in ramp for around 2 grand. When I put the bike on its jack I can spin the bike around facing the door and ride right out. I also have plenty of room for a lot more bike things in there.

I have a 5 car garage and I’m building another one.
I have a buddy that put up a two level garage. 110’ X 50’
He still filled it…

Bottom Line-
You can’t build it big enough. Build as much as you can borrow and then some.

Go HUGE!! You will fill it up. I guarantee it.

I've got a 30x60 pole barn with 12 feet ceiling height.
