Title: Where D'ya Keep Ya Bikes?
Post by: Stace on March 12, 2007, 05:50 AM: All in the subject really !!

Gonna start knocking down my garage today (for one reason or another) and need to put my bikes somewhere !

Where do you keep yours? Metal Shed, Wooden Shed, Indoors etc, etc?

Am looking at some wooden sheds but am concerned at their security (or am I just being paranoid, I don't leave in a bad area !!)

New school bikes are in the Breakfast Room and 3rd bedroom.

Parts are in my extension cupboard and frames are in the conservatory.

How do you get a full bike up into the loft? I might have to make a bigger hatch !!

That might be the answer for me !!

Post by: brass monkey! on March 12, 2007, 10:23 AM: I keep mine in the Utility Room, but it's getting a bit cramped, I also have a couple of F&F & Loads of parts in the downstairs loo !! ;) ;D

Next job is to convert the loft into a big 'den' for me and the kids, this is where the bike showroom will be, I have already got a really big pull down loft hatch with proper decent stairs, so shouldn't have any probs getting the bikes up n down !! :daumenhoch:
