Commercial bike racks are often made of metal, which can damage your bike's tires—and they come with a price tag. As experienced DIY enthusiasts, we've seen how simple recycling projects solve these issues. Here's a clever, free alternative that's exceptionally gentle on tires.
Watch how it's done:

Using old tires, arrange them parallel and partially bury them in the ground. This creates a sturdy, outdoor rack that's easy on your bike's rubber.
While it requires some yard work, the result is a fun, sustainable solution worth trying!
And if your old bike is out of service and ready for recycling, check out how to turn it into a unique potholder.
