A freestanding bicycle storage rack for use in garages and other areas, comprising a large freestanding “T”-shaped frame attachable to a base portion supported by a large weighted stand member, is similar in appearance and style to the base stands used on portable basketball hoops. An upper cross member of the frame is provided with a plurality of large hooks attached to the bottom of the upper cross member on each side. Bicycles are hoisted up and attached to the hanging hooks by their front or rear tires. Scooters and other similar devices may also be stored using the same hooks. These features provide the ability to store bicycles off of the floor without connections to a wall, ceiling, or other building structures.
