Dream Garage Tour - Eric Porter's Mountain Bike Garage

This is my Dream Garage, here's the full tour, learn how this DIY build helped to organize my garage full of bikes and gear. Last year Seth's Bike Hacks came out to visit and help with the rebuild, and this is a more complete tour with more information, along with what worked well. Also, for those of you wondering, the garage has stayed clean for the whole year, although it does get messy from time to time!
For Seth's video with more of the actual building of the garage organization, check out this video!

[@JeffLenoskyTrailBoss]

How about meeeee ;-)

[@PorterMTB]

Big day for youtube!

[@anderszion9389]

i guess im asking randomly but does someone know a way to log back into an instagram account..? I was dumb lost the login password. I love any tricks you can give me.

[@peibikeguy]

Sweet setup! "You gotta pack it like a Dong!" - Wiser words were never spoken.

[@PorterMTB]

Haha he has a way with words!

[@alexziebarth4234]

I'm not first Definitely not last but when Eric Porter uploads I click fast as f*** Thank you for uploading

[@omnicrop9175]

I own 2 iron horse bikes that i had not known a whole lot about when I seen your frame it made my day

[@PorterMTB]

That's so cool!!

[@denisamendelsohn9794]

You should make a bike check video for all of bikes. I now that you have done that in the past but only with you mostly used bikes. That would de a really cool video! This one is awesome too though!

[@PorterMTB]

I'll do a bike check vid next year on all of them!

[@FormerlyOn2Wheels]

God dayum this is almost exactly what I want as a bike garage. Pegboard all of the tools. And lots more mechanicsy tools with a bigger tool chest. And off course a woodshop in an adjacent building. More bikes always. I do love the fact that you have bikes in almost every category. At the end of the day a full sus trail bike can do a lot but not everything. For yet another tangent, I had no idea that Eric was at one point sponsored by Haro. Now I can say I actually have something in common with him. Sort of. My NICA team is sponsored by Haro so we get bikes loaned for a season. I took my first season on one of the bikes. Got a new Trek Fuel EX 9.8, had one race for S2 then canceled. Got 67 of 67. Lost the fixing bolt, and sheared the safety plate. A multitool only gives so much leverage. Still finished and have something that I can't help but laugh at. Now it a 8 months till S3. Never would have discovered my love for the sport if it weren't for an amazing team and Haro. Sure they are by no means amzing bikes but they are solid. And it says a whole lot about a company when they send $15k in bikes know that they will rode and maintained by teenagers, and only ask for chain, cassette, and rubber to be replaced in the end. I respect them I lot for that. Wow that is longer than I intended. Hey Eric you got any magura brakes not in that stack? Ill take some off your hands. lol

[@dylanbikesthings3633]

There's a lot here that we can take away and do in our own garages! great video

[@PorterMTB]

Nice, I was hoping to help inspire some people to tune up their garages!

[@dylanbikesthings3633]

@@PorterMTB For sure! I have a video about my apartment "garage" haha. Making the most of my small space.

[@TrailBreaker]

Sweet Shop but what caught my eye is the CB. I have a 1969 CB350 that my Dad bought new. I've had it for 15 years and got it running but need to have the valve seats replaced. Super sentimental and amazing little bike!

[@PorterMTB]

Nice! I can't wait to get it running, it'll happen this summer, such a cool bike.

[@dieselhately3760]

You should make a video when you ride the track on every bike🤟

[@CaseyStonehouse]

I’d love for you to go through all the bikes you own and what components they are running, loving what your doing atm ❤️

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks! I will definitely do a full quiver check, sometime this summer!

[@maximillianmallon9930]

such a cool workbench and snowmobile

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks! They are both pretty rad!

[@chadtaylor805]

I love you videos, you passing on your old workbench as a kid to your kids is awesome, 👌👍😁

[@PorterMTB]

So happy I'm able to do that, the kids love it too!

[@morgantownmtber7330]

Eric porter doesn’t even have to leave his garage lucky he could live there

[@joedillo]

Especially with that awesome apartment he has up there too!

[@PorterMTB]

Yeah I could definitely live in the garage! haha

[@butternation9324]

I seen the 850 and I was like wow cause I am a really series snowmobiler and that’s a awesome sled I personally like the rmks but the summits are good to

[@chadperrin2358]

Yeah Porter! Thanks for the Ride Concepts props! You rule man!

[@mtb14292]

I’m so happy he’s great full for what he’s has keep it up Eric

[@jumperdriver1]

Down to earth and appreciative dude! That boosts Eric's cooleness to the moon. He definitely deserves everything he has.

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks, I appreciate that! I can't believe it either, so I keep working hard and having fun!

[@tryplecrown]

Loved watching you and Seth put that space together. Turned out awesome! Gear heaven for sure.

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks! Glad I've been able to keep it dialed!

[@lukehinchelwood5765]

Thanks for inspiring me to clean my room

[@ANTheWhizkid]

Good on ya man. You´re living my dream. Watching the vid really made me happy af.

[@David-rb3tk]

Just came across your channel while looking for a way to reorganize my garage. You would think a 1500 square foot shed would never get full!! You have lots of great ideas I am going to try out. This might show my age but I remember lusting after a friend's older brother's bike: A Diamondback Mean Streak. Thankfully, mountain bikes have come a long ways. I will have a look at more of your content.

[@LexZolnir]

Living the dream! Awesome!

[@PorterMTB]

Still can't believe it...

[@mitro7087]

Keep up the great work

Looking Good Porter! Garage Goals 🤘

[@ShutUpandRideMTB]

That Honda CB350 was the best part of the tour for me. Really stuff Eric!

[@PorterMTB]

I can't wait to get that bike running this summer! Great talking to you the other night!

[@KurtBob]

Love it man!!!!

[@JoshuaLTRyan]

SLAYER!!! Nice garage man. Well done.

[@PorterMTB]

🤘🤘 Thanks!

[@brickbros211]

Great video, I remember when I watched Seth’s vide of cleaning out your garage! Happy Easter to your family

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks, same to your family! Yeah it was just about a year ago that we cleaned it, I've kept it nice!

[@TrailFeatures]

So many cool ideas! Hoping when we buy a house it'll have a walk in basement so I can build a work area, gym, sudio, and sound booth. I'll also have to to build a bike corral because Kristen already made it clear the bikes won't take priority over the cars in the garage. 😅

[@PorterMTB]

Haha good luck. Sounds like you just need to find a place with a big enough garage for both!

[@connorlohan2137]

Does anyone else wished they were living with Porter Love your channel man🔥

The fact that I saw Slayer on your phone infers that you jam to Slayer. You just earned a subscriber. 🤘

Listening to Slayer live at the Lakeland civic center...I was at that show!!!!

[@PorterMTB]

No way!!! That's so rad you were there! I saw them on their final tour last year, hoping they change their minds, would love to take my kids to see them.

[@jessejamesdaniels]

Oh man I miss those cliff mojo bars!!!

[@PorterMTB]

They are really good!

[@connerball0841]

Hella nice snowmobile not the best bars but for powder there good

[@JClark2600]

@4:40 Ryan & Dave those are names I haven't heard in a long time. I think I was 10yo when I met Ryan at Orange Y. I think it was the SoCal ABA State Championships. Ray Rome kicked everyone out of the Pit, below the announcer tower in the old track layout. He did let the Pros and the guys who worked the track in though. My dad worked as the head medical staff onsite so I was allowed to enter the Pit too. Ryan was chilln watching some of the other pros gate starts and he gave me some pointers when my moto came up. I ended up getting 3rd in the 10X SoCal State Championship in 1991. Thanks Ryan.

[@PorterMTB]

That's awesome, super cool story. They are the best.

Yep, it's coming this summer!

You should do a video where you show us all your bikes

[@PorterMTB]

I'll do it this summer!

Cool

Pretty rad set up man. "Make sure when packing the dirt it sounds like a dong." Hahah.

[@urmomscivic6011]

6:38 nice music choice 🤘

[@PorterMTB]

🤘🤘🤘

[@MichaelBrown-wt2pq]

Ok, I have so many questions. First and foremost. What are your garage/Lodge store hours? Second. Was that a butter garlic and lemon marinade on the salmon? Atlantic or Wild? When you grill your asparagus do you Blanche it first? Or just chuck it on the grill and giver, And about that snow machine.... probably the coolest thing I’ve ever seen!! I know “this guy” would enjoy more snow machine content!!! Lastly. For some reason my booking didn’t go through for my stay in your garage. Can I get my deposit back? Oh and one more thing.... I need a little more chainsaw. You know how I love the chainsaw. Give me more chainsaw.

[@PorterMTB]

For you, we're open 24 hours a day. Correct on the salmon, garlic and lemon and herbs, it was awesome. Chuck the asparagus on after putting some olive oil and salt on it. More chainsaw coming soon too!!!

[@minicomposer3271]

Sweet

[@cryalowicki]

Thanks for the tour Eric. I'd like to switch to vertical storage to take back some floor space! How hard is it to get your hung bikes in and out of there? Looks pretty tight without scratching.

[@mauriciomontero2039]

Dang all these years of struggling to pack dirt ...now I know ... it’s as simple as dong dong dong... Thanks for the video... we have very similar garages, except I gave away my cb350... lol

[@thesolevlogger6363]

Can you do a huge bike check on all of your bikes that would be sick

[@PorterMTB]

I will definitely do that, sometime this summer!

[@fendt_felix]

Can you please do a video where you show all bikes out or your garage? And nice video!

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks! I definitely will, sometime this summer!

[@bikingwithryan5968]

Hey Eric would you do a Kenda tire review on most models?

[@ryderdiamond5885]

You listen to slayer?!?! Heck ya man

[@PorterMTB]

You know it 🤘🤘

[@owenmorgan8742]

You should do a bike upgrade like Seth for a less fortunate kid in your community

[@PorterMTB]

Definitely! Working on it for sometime in the next year!

[@mainebackcountrysnowmobili7778]

Favorite part is the sled
