Reply #1 - 10/19/16 at 14:50:33 Funny, there's a 3 car garage in the background. No, this is for the micro home crowd or the guy that has a $30,000+ that has to park outside on the way to sturgeous.

I don't "put away" anything.... I simply "stop using" them Cheesy

AKA: the weed eater...lawn mower.... extra trash cans for leaves and oak nuts...

With my next move... to alabama... currently looking at mobile homes (ok, modular homes) most of which only have sheds for lawn equipment and no garages, I will be looking for a space next to the place with enough square footage to pour a pad and build my own garage.

We will live in the "abode" only for a couple of years and then find our true "forever home" LOL

An old coworker that's a single guy in his late 20s has a 2 car garage and only one car. He's letting me keep the bikes there over the winter for free. I'll probably just keep him stocked with good food every once and a while.

The Bike Barn has a flap at the top on both sides that can be closed for storms. The bottom is about a half inch off the ground so air can get in.
I haven't noticed any rust forming.
