Building a Bike Workshop in my Airbnb House

In the Fall we introduced the Berm Peak Ranger Station, a house I’ll be renting on Airbnb this Summer. Since guests will need a place to lock up their bikes, I’m giving the basement a quick mini renovation for the cause! Today we’ll build a bike rack, a workbench, and a tool wall for guests to work on their mountain bikes.

[@alienlobsteroo4882]

Seth you might want to do the following: Attach a security camera and a sign which says: "We are not responsible for stolen goods! The camera is for your and the shop's safety!" So people will be less inclined to steal. There's always someone who needs an nice new electric screwdriver.

I think that is a given, those tools will only last so long...... Unless you state in the contract that guest are responsible for tools if they go missing.

[@RealJawnes]

@@hey1steve1 its worth a shot

[@SethsBikeHacks]

I do wonder how long the shop will stay nice... It's worth noting that the most expensive way you could steal used tools would be to rent a 3 bedroom house. If a tool does manage to walk off here and there I'll just consider it a cost of doing business, and if something really bad happens AirBNB has policies in place.

Hey Seth, I love watching your old GoPro Camera review videos, but I don't see any newer ones where you talk about what cameras are best to use. I just thought it would be interesting to see the contrast from the older videos, in a time where GoPro's flagship cameras weren't necessarily the best for mountain bike videos. I'd love to see how those older cameras compare today, as well as what other types of cameras you are using now.

[@simoneller5194]

Wrap the bike rack in old tubes. Great chance for some upcycling

[@frankthetankricard]

Good idea but he probably has fewer inner tubes than bikes lying around. Most of them likely never used, strapped to a frame for emergencies. I'm thinking a pair of used up tires would also work. Chopping off the bead and making a strip that could be secured on top of the pipe as a straight piece. A bit of extra work for sure but it'd add to the mtb vibe.

[@BMOutdoorz]

@@frankthetankricard HE probably doesn't have a ton laying around, but I think road bike handlebar tape would work very well

[@maxreece2402]

I mean he could put cameras in there if he really wanted to track who steals them if they do and he’ll have their details when they pay for the booking

[@Weighted-Earmuffs]

What is not realized by you is that this air bnb is not gonna be cheap.

[@chilli-iceolive-abode2447]

Thing is if you steal something he will know who it is, he'll have all their contact info. Plus it's the same deal with all Air B&Bs there is a certain level of trust there. Obviously there are cases where people steal the TVs, electronics and all the furniture but thankfully those are extremely rare. Only thing I can see going missing is the communal spare parts bin with valve caps, shifter cables etc cuz it seems like the equivalent of taking the hotel shampoo and what not.

[@inventiveowl395]

When you check out of rental places, you usually go through the place with a person who checks whether there is some damage etc, or they do it after you leave and in case there's something missing etc, they'll send you a check..

[@glowerpower]

Outfitting the Ranger Station with tools is above and beyond! I hope people respect and appreciate it. Seth is top notch.
