RE: My New Bike Shed
Very nice work John.
The only caution I'll pass on is that metal enclosures are often suseptable to humidity (condensation) problems. You may want to consider installing 2, say 12"x12", grille vents at each end of the shed, one down low and the other up high.

Good job, but like cHarley also said, I too suggest some decent ventilation.....Otherwise you'll find on some of those hot steemy summerdays, esepecially after a rain fall, that that thing will become a sauna......moisture is not good for the bike.

RE: My New Bike Shed
Hey fella's, I really do appreciate the comments that you have given me on this. Keith, as for the dance pole, I am affraid that if I put one in my wife would probably turn it sideways and start hanging clothes on it. Charley, I do understand about the vents. I attached this shed next to the carport which has corragated tin on the side except about 10 inches at the top. I cut a strip of corragated fiberglass wide enough to fill this in. It is very easy to remove or put back up. Also there is 2 inch ventilation at the bottom of the door. IWILL keep watch on it though. Again, I thank all of you.
