Better install one of each. That way if the wife (if you have one) asks, you have a contigency plan.

If you use 12" X 12" tiles and have the kickstand in the middle of one it may cause the edges to lift up. I would try to use something one piece like heavy lino or a paint on rubberized product.
Come to think of it lino might be very slippery when wet, a textured rubberized product would be best, something like a spray on truck box liner.

I just noticed that it looks like drainage may be a problem. Looks like all the rain run off is gonna "pool" around or behind your shed.
Might want to check that. And maybe add some french drain pipes underground.
Pushing a bike on that grass is gonna be tough during the winter.

For functionality... a door in the back. Then you can just pull into one end, and then leave out the other on the next ride. None of that backing out, turning, dropping the bike...etc etc. The only times I've dropped my bike have been backing the thing outta the garage. [:@]
Oh and a garage door opener, with the HD accessory that will open the door when you cycle the headlight switch. Or...better yet..the brillant one for $25 that 128auto designed to do the same thing.

Grade around shed is good. Check that out first thing. The fence behind it is actually back a bout 15' behind shed(old access utility alley). I am in the center of it, being the high point, and runs downhill in both directions away from me.
Sporty - Opener will be going in soon. Try to figure out where to "hide" it with the 128auto conversion kit. 02 so no battery cover.
Hotlap- Will lookin into text. rubber floor. It is a plywood floor so need to find something that will adhere. Did a plywood floor, with 4x4 stringers on blocks so if I move, I can jack it up & roll it out of the back yard on 4" steel pipe to a trailer.
