If y'all have plain doors on your garage, and want an easy way to change the looks . . . . here's an option. They're magnetic, and easy to install. The total cost thru Amazon was $68. These are 2-12' doors, so if yours are larger/smaller the cost will be different.

I found it interesting for those who have suffered a slight disability and are fanatical about two wheels. This adaptation + DCT… maybe it would work
I met a man probably about 30 years ago in North Carolina on a Gold Wind with air cylinders connected to A arms that had small wheels on them. They were hinged at the bottom of the bike. The man said he and his son or son in law designed and built that so he could ride. He used the air compressor for the Gold Wing suspension to operate the stabilizing wheels. He had manual control over them and I am pretty sure they were also set up to go up and down on a set speed of the bike. He was in his 70's at the time and was such an inspiration to talk with. He had polio and just didn't have the strength in his legs to hold a bike and said he was not going to ride a side car rig. I have to upmost admiration for people like that.

For anyone who served in the US Navy, you know this guy has the mail buoy watch. It's pretty important!
I was on a sub, but we didn't have a mail buoy watch. :D I'm thinking he might be making a repair, but the boat needs to stay submerged/concealed. It looks WW II, and might not even be U.S.

Of those submarines with snorkels (U977), we have around here, in the south, sunk (voluntarily)....they arrived and were sunk at least 4….But, "supposedly", some more arrived (which were also sunken)….but they did it clandestinely…..nobody knows where they did it, nor is it known “who” came inside
Edit: One U977 and one U530 were taken to USA and sunk there
