Default Bikes and travel

Am wondering how many people have wheeled their bike in their motel room.

Every single time... I never leave my bike outside at hotels, MAJOR hotspot for bike thieves. First thing I tell them when I go to check into a motel is that I want a ground level outside room, and if they don't have one I leave and keep riding around until I find one that does. I rode around Orlando, FL for 2 hours one time in the middle of the night one time looking for one, and around Las Cruses, NM for about an hour looking for one. I've even moved furniture and little refrigerators out of the way just so I could get the bike in (then put it back when I left, of course)

Only place I didn't pull it into the room was when I stayed at Two Wheel Inn in Robbinsville, NC. The place is just for bikes and they have little garages for each room

Same here - always. When it gets cold I even bring my track bike into the living room at home (it has water only, no antifreeze).

Can't say that I have, but once I get myself out on a real trip you can bet that I will.

I wheel her into my apartment most nights, why not a hotel room.
